Let me introduce you to one of our spring surprises: branch breaker snow

Ajouté : 2026-05-20

Branch breaker snow is a spring weather phenomenon where heavy snow falls on trees that have already developed leaves, causing the branches to break under the weight; this occurs in regions like Colorado where spring weather can rapidly shift from warm and sunny to cold and snowy, and can be prevented by trimming weak or crossing branches before spring, gently shaking snow off smaller trees, avoiding standing under loaded branches, and keeping trees watered during dry seasons to maintain their strength.
