HAHA, Jerry. You beat me to it .... and posted while I was typing.
Not sure what it is in Pennsylvania, but here in CA a fallen tree is usually considered an act of God where the neighbor, in this case, would not be liable for the damage to the trailer - only for the removal of the tree. I have a friend that just went through this (i.e. his tree fell on a neighbor's storage shed). There are exceptions if the neighbor had previously been formally notified/warned that the tree was a threat due to lack of maintenance, disease, etc. Thus, OP's own insurance will likely cover the damage.
