Happy Snow Day Statesville!

𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐒𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐬𝐯𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞! 🤞 We don't know about you, but we are hoping for a little winter magic! ❄️

But, keep in mind that snow and ice can weigh heavy on trees, causing limbs to crack or fall.

If a tree or branches fall during a snow event, residents should follow these steps to stay safe and address the situation effectively:

• 𝐒𝐭𝐚𝐲 𝐒𝐚𝐟𝐞: Keep a safe distance from the fallen tree or branches, especially if they are near power lines. Do not attempt to touch or move them yourself.
• 𝐑𝐞𝐩𝐨𝐫𝐭 𝐃𝐨𝐰𝐧𝐞𝐝 𝐏𝐨𝐰𝐞𝐫 𝐋𝐢𝐧𝐞𝐬: If power lines are involved, call your local utility company immediately to report the issue. Assume all downed lines are live and dangerous.
• 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐀𝐫𝐞𝐚: Mark off the area to keep others safe, especially children and pets. Use caution tape or other visible markers if available.
• 𝐂𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐚 𝐏𝐫𝐨𝐟𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥: Contact a trusted tree care service, like Earnest Tree Service, to safely handle the removal of fallen trees or branches. Our team is equipped to manage snow-damaged trees without risking further property damage. View top questions to ask when selecting a tree service company here.
• 𝐃𝐨𝐜𝐮𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐈𝐧𝐬𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞: Take photos of the damage for insurance purposes before cleanup begins. Check with your insurance provider about coverage for tree damage.
• 𝐀𝐯𝐨𝐢𝐝 𝐃𝐈𝐘 𝐑𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐯𝐚𝐥: Heavy snow and ice make trees unstable and unpredictable. Professional services have the expertise and equipment to manage the risks safely.
