I live in far western North Carolina. The remnants of Ida brought us about 6 inches of rain over 30 hours. At midnight, the biggest tree on my five acres came down on my house. No outside lights here on the mountain, but using a flashlight, it looks pretty bad. Just contacted the insurance company. Daylight will reveal all.

Been trying for over a month to get the local tree guy to take down that one tree. I love it up here, but the fucking hillbillies are pretty damn useless for getting anything done.

What I did was had my company drop off a 80' lift for the 50' honey locust tree that split after our storm. I started with the small branches at the top and worked my way down into manageable chunks. Was it a slow process? Yeah, took me about a week. But, I didn't have to worry about the tree spinning and causing more damage, and I saved a ton of money.
