Re:Rain prior to landfall

I have about 17 Queen palms in my backyard, as of right now. With all the recent rain, 3 of them are tilting severly.. Looks like I will spend part of tomorrow taken them out all together until the storm passes. The trees are about 10 feet tall.
Prior rainfall to a tropical storm/Hurricane definitely has it's impact on whether the trees are gonna be there afterward.
