There looks to be a fair bit of damage done to that Sequoia.
Wind drying it out and immature roots unable to replace the lost water, I'll wager.
First seasons are always the one where new trees require regularwatering, especially when they are evergreen and especially if the location is exposed.
spider, is the area exposed, as Sequoia generally dislike locations like that anyway, preferring shelter.

For further reading, a good article on water loss through wind is this....... wind burn

The Sequoia looks bad, I fear for it, but the lilac is young and looks pretty healthy, So keep up the watering and offer protection if you can.
If you feel this cold harsh wind will be affecting the plants such as those in the pics year round, then it is still not to late to move them to a sheltered location.

thanks gpi for your advice .pity did not think they would be short of water on boggy soil .Maybe too late for them but will keep them watered and see what happens.
