Well that was interesting, think we just had unwarned rotation (now warned) go over us. Eerie as ****. I was watching velocity on radar and it looked very sus plus pouring rain. All of a sudden the wind got much stronger, couldn't see trees 75yds away and my body is just like **** this. We watched out the basement windows and even DH is like yeah ok this is weird because the trees were all over the place and you could see weird **** in the rain, like waves of rain but stronger. Think it was light rotation. Some leaves flying up too.

Hard to really tell with all the leaves, but kind of looks like your maple has multiple central leaders.
You should pick the best one and trim back the others.
The wind may have taken care of one of them

They literally came and did that last year, storm took out the leader. But yeah we wondered too if there more to clear. It's an autumn blaze so it may not be long lived lol.
