Earthworks Tree Services Outlines Winter Tree Care Steps Following NOAA Outlook

WEAVERVILLE, NC - October 30, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Earthworks Tree Services is outlining practical steps for caring for trees in the winter as western North Carolina enters the 2026/2027 season. The guidance follows NOAA’s new winter outlook and a heavy ice storm that struck the mountains in January. It also builds on the company’s earlier educational material about dead or dormant trees.
NOAA’s 2026/2027 outlook favors above-normal temperatures and precipitation across western North Carolina from December through February, WLOS reported. The outlook does not indicate how much snow will fall or when cold air will arrive. WLOS also reported that El Niño is expected to drive the season, and El Niño years tend to favor above-average snowfall regionally.

Forecasters warned ahead of the January storm that ice accumulation combined with wind gusts of 30 to 40 mph could cause power outages, according to 828newsNOW. WLOS photographed crews working to restore power in western North Carolina on January 26. Ice adds weight to branches, making the condition of a tree’s limbs a key concern before storms arrive.
Mulching is a widely recommended winter step for trees. Texas A&M Forest Service notes that mulch insulates the root zone of newly planted trees against repeated freezing and thawing, and Purdue’s Landscape Report advises leaving a gap of about two inches between mulch and the trunk. Casey Trees adds that excess moisture against the trunk can lead to decay.
Texas A&M Forest Service and Casey Trees note that dormant trees need watering less often, roughly once or twice a month when rain and snow are scarce. Watering is an easy-to-overlook part of winter tree care as temperatures fall, but Casey Trees advises watering only when temperatures exceed 40°F and the ground around the tree is free of snow and ice. Purdue’s report says evergreens benefit from slow, deep watering until the soil freezes.
Pruning is a third element of preparation. Casey Trees notes that trees with good structure are more resistant to high winds, snow, and ice, and it recommends structural pruning while trees are young. The Purdue report advises enlisting a professional arborist for large limbs and high branches.
Based in Weaverville, Earthworks Tree Services works with residential and commercial property owners across Buncombe and Henderson counties. Its services include pruning, plant health care, tree risk assessment, tree removal, stump grinding, and land clearing. The company’s certified arborists also perform hazardous tree evaluations, which look for structural weaknesses and decay before they become emergencies.
The company’s tree risk assessments result in a report on any issues found, which informs tree management choices such as removal or stump grinding. The Purdue report also recommends visual inspections of trees from the ground up, looking for cracked or weak branches and damage to the main stem. Findings from such checks can be shared with a certified arborist.
Soil and trunk protection also factor into winter readiness. Purdue’s report notes that slow-release fertilizer applied in fall can provide a nutrient boost over the winter, and Earthworks Tree Services lists soil assessment and fertilization among its tree care services. Texas A&M Forest Service advises wrapping young, thin-barked trees in late fall to prevent sunscald.
Winter tree care focuses on preparing trees for cold temperatures and storm damage. Mulching, watering, structural pruning, and inspection each target a different cold-season risk to trees. Earthworks Tree Services is sharing these steps ahead of the outlook period, which begins in December.


Earthworks Tree Services is owned and operated by Joe Brady, a Barnardsville native who learned the biology of native trees from his father, an environmental scientist. The company’s arborists attend national industry expos to keep up with advances in safety and arboriculture. The company describes its mission as caring for the unique landscape of western North Carolina.

ABRA Auto Body Greeley Publishes Consumer Guide to Tailgate and Truck Bed Collision Damage

Greeley, CO - October 30, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
ABRA Auto Body Greeley has published new consumer guidance explaining how collision damage involving a pickup truck's tailgate and bed can be evaluated during repair planning. The October resource focuses on how technicians consider individual bed components, attachment areas, adjoining body structures, and vehicle-specific repair information after a rear or side impact.
Pickup beds contain multiple components that can be affected differently during the same collision. Depending on the truck's design, the area can include bedside panels, the bed floor, wheelhouse sections, tailgate, rear bumper, lamps, mounting locations, and other related parts.

The new guidance adds a truck-bed-specific explanation to Yoder Collision Network's existing collision repair information. Its purpose is to explain why visible damage to a tailgate or bedside represents the starting point of evaluation rather than automatically defining the entire repair scope.
An initial assessment can document dents, creases, cracks, deformation, damaged paint, displaced components, or changes in the fit between adjoining parts. The location and characteristics of the impact can then help identify which areas are relevant to further evaluation.
Tailgates provide one example. A collision may visibly damage the exterior surface while also making the tailgate's attachment and operating areas relevant to the repair plan. Depending on the truck, these can include hinges, latches, cables, handles, wiring, cameras, lighting, or other equipment.
The condition of each component is evaluated individually. A dented tailgate does not automatically establish damage to its hinges or electronic equipment, just as a tailgate that continues to open and close does not independently establish that every component or attachment area is unaffected.
Bedside damage introduces different considerations. Pickup bed sides can include exterior panels, inner structures, wheelhouse areas, attachment locations, and openings for lamps or other equipment. An impact concentrated near the rear corner may therefore involve a different group of components from damage located closer to the cab or wheel opening.
The October guidance explains that the visible size of a dent or crease alone does not determine whether a bedside component can be repaired or requires replacement. Component construction, damage characteristics, accessibility, attachment areas, and applicable repair information can contribute to that decision.
Additional information about evaluating and restoring damaged exterior panels is available through Yoder Collision Network's auto body repair information.
The relationship between the pickup bed and the truck's underlying structure can also be relevant. Many pickup trucks use a body-on-frame configuration in which the bed and cab are mounted separately to the vehicle frame. Designs vary between vehicles, making identification of the specific truck important during repair planning.
Visible bed damage does not automatically indicate frame damage. When the documented impact makes structural areas relevant, technicians can evaluate appropriate mounting locations and structural components rather than drawing conclusions from exterior appearance alone.
Bed alignment can provide additional information during that evaluation. Changes in the relationship between the bed, cab, bumper, tailgate, or adjoining components can identify areas requiring closer inspection, but panel position alone does not establish the extent or cause of the damage.
Appropriate measurement and inspection can provide more specific information when structural involvement is being evaluated.
Rear bumpers and lighting components can also be connected to the repair plan. An impact near the tailgate may involve the bumper, brackets, lamps, wiring, or other surrounding parts. Appropriate access can allow technicians to document components or mounting areas that were not fully visible during the initial exterior assessment.
The guidance distinguishes additional access from assumed damage. Previously covered components become part of the repair scope when collision-related conditions are actually identified and documented.
Modern pickup trucks can add another consideration through technology incorporated into the tailgate and surrounding rear areas. Depending on the vehicle and installed equipment, cameras, parking sensors, wiring, electronic latches, lighting, or other systems may be positioned within or near components affected by the collision.
The presence of this technology does not automatically establish that scanning, calibration, replacement, or another electronic operation is necessary. The individual vehicle, affected components, and repair operations determine which manufacturer procedures are relevant.
Manufacturer information can also address bed and tailgate repair limitations, removal and installation, joining methods, structural measurements, corrosion protection, electronic procedures, and other technical requirements. Yoder Collision Network provides additional information about manufacturer-specific repair considerations through its OEM certification information.
Material construction is another reason similar-looking truck damage can result in different repair plans. Pickup components can incorporate conventional steel, high-strength steel, aluminum, plastics, composites, and other materials depending on the manufacturer and model.
The appropriate repair approach is therefore connected to the specific component rather than a general rule for all pickup beds. A method suitable for one bedside, tailgate, or mounting area cannot automatically be assumed appropriate for another vehicle with comparable exterior damage.
The October resource brings these considerations together by presenting truck-bed collision evaluation as a component-level process. Visible conditions are documented first, followed by evaluation of relevant attachment areas, adjoining components, and structural locations when appropriate. Vehicle-specific technical information can then provide additional direction for the operations being considered.
This process helps explain why two pickups with apparently similar rear-corner damage may receive different repair plans. One impact may be limited primarily to a bumper, tailgate, or bedside, while another can involve multiple adjoining components. Differences in construction, materials, equipment, and manufacturer procedures can further affect the documented repair scope.
The new guidance is intended to make these distinctions clearer without suggesting that every tailgate or truck-bed collision results in structural or electronic damage. Instead, it explains why each affected component is evaluated according to its actual condition and its relationship with the surrounding vehicle.
The central takeaway is that pickup truck bed damage involves more than judging the appearance of a dented tailgate or bedside. Component construction, attachment areas, adjoining parts, structural relationships, installed technology, and applicable repair information can all provide relevant context when developing the repair plan.

Bale Collision Center Publishes Consumer Guide to Collision Damage Around Mirrors and Side Glass

Little Rock, AR - October 30, 2026 - PRESSADVANTAGE - 
Bale Collision Center has published a consumer guide explaining how collision damage involving side mirrors and side glass can extend beyond broken glass. Released October 30, the guide focuses on three areas that can affect repair planning after a side impact: the visible mirror or glass, the components that operate or support it, and the surrounding door or body area.
The new guidance addresses a distinction that may not be apparent immediately after a sideswipe or parking lot impact. A mirror can remain attached while its mounting or electronic functions have been affected, and side glass can remain intact while changes to the door interfere with normal window movement.

Side mirrors illustrate this distinction because modern assemblies can combine several functions within one component. Depending on the vehicle, a mirror may contain power adjustment, heating, turn-signal lighting, power-folding equipment, cameras, indicators, or other electronics in addition to the reflective glass.
When a collision strikes the mirror, evaluation can therefore extend to its housing, mounting points, fasteners, wiring, and the portion of the door supporting the assembly. A mirror that becomes loose, vibrates, changes position, or loses an electronic function after the impact provides information about the condition of that area.
Vehicle configuration also matters when replacement is necessary. Mirror assemblies for different versions of the same model can contain different equipment or electrical connections even when their exterior appearance is similar. Vehicle information and applicable manufacturer procedures can help identify the configuration installed on the individual vehicle.
The guide also addresses cameras and other driver-assistance-related equipment associated with some mirror assemblies. Collision damage involving a mirror does not automatically mean calibration is required. Diagnostic, initialization, or calibration procedures depend on the individual vehicle, installed equipment, affected components, and work performed.
Side glass presents a different repair situation because movable windows operate as part of a system inside the door. Tracks, guides, seals, a regulator, motor, switches, and other components can contribute to normal window operation depending on the vehicle.
After a door impact, a window may begin moving more slowly, stop before closing completely, make unusual noises, or sit differently against its seals. These changes can be evaluated along with the visible door and glass damage rather than assuming the glass itself is responsible.
When side glass breaks, technicians can also account for the condition of the opening and components within the door. Broken fragments may enter the door cavity or interior, while collision damage can involve tracks, guides, seals, trim, or mounting locations needed for the replacement glass to operate correctly.
Fixed side glass, including quarter glass on some vehicles, presents another configuration. Because this glass is installed within a defined body opening, collision damage to the surrounding area can influence the replacement process. The opening, seals, trim, and attachment areas can be evaluated along with the broken glass.
The October guide identifies new wind noise and water intrusion as additional observations drivers can document after a side impact. These conditions do not establish a specific cause, but they can accompany changes involving glass position, weatherstripping, seals, or the surrounding door.
The guide’s central framework separates three conditions that can otherwise be grouped together as a glass or mirror problem. The first is direct damage to the visible component. The second involves its mounting, mechanical, or electronic systems. The third involves deformation or damage to the door or body area supporting those components.
That distinction is particularly relevant after a sideswipe because a single impact can involve the mirror, glass, door panel, trim, handles, and adjoining body components. Establishing the complete affected area allows the repair plan to reflect documented damage before body work, glass replacement, refinishing, component installation, and applicable vehicle-specific procedures are completed.
Drivers can document observable changes following an accident, including a loose mirror, loss of electronic mirror functions, altered window movement, damaged seals, wind noise, water intrusion, or glass that no longer remains correctly positioned. These observations can provide useful information when the affected area is inspected.
The October 30 publication adds a collision-specific explanation to Bale Collision Center’s existing glass replacement information, with additional context available through its auto body repair information. The guide’s new focus is the relationship between the visibly damaged mirror or glass and the mechanical, electronic, and body components associated with it.
Facility information for the company’s Downtown operation is available through the Downtown Little Rock location page.

Powered by Gigs, BBVA Expands Offering in Italy With eSIM Service Integrated Into Its Banking App

BBVA customers in Italy can now stay connected wherever they travel by purchasing mobile data plans directly through BBVA’s app, bringing banking, payments and global connectivity together in one place. Launched through an agreement with Gigs, the eSIM service marks another step in BBVA’s plan to expand beyond financial services, debuting in Italy with potential expansion to other markets.
MILAN, Italy and SAN FRANCISCO, CA, October 30, 2026 (EZ Newswire) -- Instead of paying expensive roaming fees, turning to third-party applications, or buying a physical SIM card when traveling abroad, BBVA customers in Italy can now purchase and activate an eSIM directly through BBVA's bank app. To offer this new mobile connectivity service, BBVA relies on Gigs, a leading embedded connectivity provider.
"With the new eSIM, we are making it easier for our customers to access an essential service when travelling abroad, in a fully digital and frictionless way, adding mobile connectivity to BBVA's range of solutions that go beyond purely financial services,” says Walter Rizzi, Head of Digital Banking at BBVA in Italy.
The eSIM service complements a broad range of solutions in Italy that BBVA is already offering to support its customers before and during their trips, simplifying different needs within a single digital environment. Customers currently have access to solutions for planning each trip through the dedicated 'MyTrips' tool, which helps them budget and categorise travel expenses, as well as exclusive benefits such as 0% FX fees on payments abroad with the BBVA debit card, a natural companion to the new eSIM when travelling abroad, and free cash withdrawals of €100 or more across the eurozone, including unlimited free withdrawals at BBVA ATMs when travelling to Spain. This is complemented by the payment flexibility and instalment options offered by 'Pay&Plan,' along with other direct benefits such as 4% interest on account balances and 4% cashback on purchases.
"Today's travellers don't want to juggle different apps for every part of their trip, they want to manage the essentials in one place. By embedding connectivity directly into its app with Gigs, BBVA gives customers one place to budget, pay, split expenses, and stay connected abroad. It's a radically better experience built for those who want to travel, bank, and connect globally," says Hermann Frank, co-founder and CEO of Gigs.
An eSIM for travelling in your BBVA app

This eSIM service is designed for customers travelling abroad who need a simple, fully digital way to access mobile data. The eSIM only needs to be installed once and can be reused to purchase new plans in the future, so customers do not need to reinstall it every time they travel.
The entire experience sits within the BBVA app. Customers choose their destination and data allowance, then activate their eSIM with a tap. On arrival, they simply switch it on to connect to a local network. Customers can also track data usage, check their plan's remaining validity, receive usage alerts, buy more data, and contact technical support, all without leaving the app.
The new eSIM is initially available to individual customers residing in Italy who are over the age of 18 and hold a BBVA online current account, provided their device supports eSIM technology.
A more proactive, useful, and personalised banking experience

With this launch, BBVA is entering the connectivity space, a new category of services with the potential to grow in the future and support customers both while travelling and in their day-to-day lives. Integrating these types of solutions into the app makes it possible to offer a more proactive, useful, and personalised experience.
For now, the eSIM service is already available to the bank's customers in Italy, with the possibility of progressively extending it to other markets.
