Trio of summer storms wipes out 0.1% of canopy and public tree budget; Oshawa, Canada

newsdurhamregion.com Summer storms kill hundreds of trees in Oshawa:
A trio of severe summer thunderstorms has left the City's forestry budget in the red.
A City report says the storms, which occurred in July and August, resulted in the loss of 200 trees from municipal parks and streets and damage to 300 more. Those numbers may increase, because damage inspections are still ongoing.
The dead trees represent about 0.1 per cent of the City's total tree canopy.
