Last weekend's storm blew over one of my wood stacks. I have attached before and after photos.

Using a tree for an anchor for stacks, this is usually the end result.

Probably a combination of using the trees for support (they wave in the wind) and the frost coming out of the ground. Either way, you get some extra practice in stacking wood. lol And don't worry, it happens to a lot of folks.
 
Clipping a free standing stack of firewood with the edge of your snowplow causes the same result. As me how I know...... :)

It usually doesn't harm the snow blade either does it Shari.... lol
