0010088 Damage

Result of severe hail storm on the night of March 8, 1999. The storm impacted about 46 square miles. In the most severely-impacted areas, all pine foliage and buds were stripped from the trees. The hardwoods had not leafed out and were not impacted as severly. This is photo showing crown damage to young pines in a longleaf plantation. This shot was taken March 24, 1999 performing a survey of the storm area.

1361187 Damage extensive damage to a mixed pine and hardwood stand in 1985
1391133 Damage
1402067 Damage Minor damage consists of small rounded tears in the leaf. Heavier hail may rip the leaves to shreds, break leaves off the stalk, and even break stalks.
1440069 Damage Hail damage consists of tears in the leaf web and broken leaves and stalks. Damage may vary greatly among fields or within a given field depending on the severity of the weather conditions. Tobacco damaged later than the normal lay-by time is usually handled as a normal crop. Wind can damage leaves or cause partial or complete blowdown. Early topping reduces late season blowdown. Tobacco blown down after topping should be "stood up" or harvested immediately to prevent loss of leaves. Wind damage following water soaking of the leaves from the underside (wind frazzle) can resemble hail injury but differs in that usually no veins are broken.
