I have 3 good sized black cherry trees in my backyard. I just noticed that
they have lost most of their leaves.
It has been unusually cold and wet this year and the yard is a bit swampy
(Rochester NY), maybe that is responsible? Or maybe they do it every August
and I have just never noticed. (I have lots and lots of trees back there, so
not noticing these would be easy enough)

Is this something to be concerned about? If so, is there anything to be
done?
Thanks.

The leaves on my neighbor's cherry tree turned yellow and fell off,
the first time I remember that happening. Also, my willow is losing a
lot of leaves (turning yellow w/black spots). These are large trees.

My guess it's the rain and humidity. With trees that size I suppose
there's nothing that can be done. Hopefully new leaves next year will
be OK.
