I figured the trees were very shallow rooted - when the trees went, so did the roots. And where the roots go, so shall the turf follow.

Maybe they had just sodded the lawn with the world's largest roll of sod before the storm. They definitely should have used a roller in this situation. Those corners are NOT making good soil contact.
