Nobody is "Liable" for an act of nature. It does not matter if it was your tree, your neighbors tree or a tree that blew in from 8 blocks away.

Your own homeowners insurance policy will cover your property.

If your neighbor sustained damage, Your neighbor's Insurance policy would cover damages to his property.

Just notify your home insurer of your loss.

Probably not. If the tree falls on your house due to a storm then the neighbor is not liable for the damage and it will have to be filed on your insurance. The only case where a neighbor may be liable is if the tree was dead and the person knew it was dead and was a risk to your property. Why would you want to sue your neighbor anyway?
