On November 1 we had the big snow that was gone by the afternoon. Over night we had winds up to 50 mph and awoke to our Bradford pear tree having lost a large branch.
These trees are notorious for having their limbs/branches stripped by wind and ice. This one evidently has a history of this.
It took out the fence when it fell. The fence was in ill repair anyhow. I had tacked the barbed wire up on deteriorating posts mostly for show. I had planned to replace the posts that were rotting in the ground, but SWMBO discouraged me from that, and now I am glad.
