[quote=GMScud;665688]Looks like DC-metro is going to see mostly heavy winds, and maybe 1-3 inches.

[quote=firstdown;665721]You need to fix the tree:

1. Get a bolt that is long enough to go through the tree.
2. Have someone hold the branch back in place as you drill a hole through
tree were the split occured.
3. But the bolt through the tree and tighten it so to pull the tree back
together.
4. Cut off bolt flush with the nut and tree will heel over time.

Here is a link I found:

Just use screws that are not too big and it will work just fine. It will take months even more for the tree to heal so you need to use screws to hold it together. I did this with a Dog Wood tree and it worked great.
