don't try to outsmart Mother Nature--she'll get you in the end either way. Park in the closest spot and take your chances.

Perhaps the tree that has lost limbs before has lost all the limbs it's going to lose, and the tree that has lost none has one that's now ripe for this storm.
Or perhaps the tree that has dropped limbs in the past is rotten to the core and will keep on dropping them until it's all gone. Do you see any clearly dead limbs on either? Any splits, cracks, checks. What is the risk of being towed if you park in the grass away from all the trees whenever a thunderstorm comes through? I see no thunderstorms brewing in all of PA, so this isn't an immediate question, is it? |

It was just too busy at the nuthouse to post at the time. Because I tend to be a catastrophist, I expect that if I don't park under either potentially dangerous tree a large chunk of the building facade which has been somewhat indifferently maintained since it's construction in 1936 will come crashing down on my car.
