Default Winds knock over Trees in thinned areas!

His venerable, 70-year-old blue spruce is finally gone. The 90-foot-tall tree
was first weakened 25 years ago when wind snapped off its top 30 feet. The
spruce grew back with four separate tops.

At 9:30 p.m. Wednesday, Parks watched one of the four tops blow down into his
neighbor's yard. It was a microburst, he said.

I certainly hope the made him leave the fallen trunk for wildlife
habitat.
