Winter Snow Turns Weak Branches Into Hazards

Wet winter snow piles on weight fast, and branches fail without warning. What looks solid today can snap tonight, damaging roofs, cars, and power lines. A quick winter inspection catches weak limbs before a storm turns them into a cleanup job. Prevention now is cheaper, safer, and faster than emergency removal later.
