Some shingles blew off my roof and part of my fence almost collasped (managed to screw it back together). I don't think there is too much damage to my roof but I got someone coming to check it out Friday.

I was looking at my neighbors place and they have some missing shingles along with peeling. Maybe some of the ones in my yard are theirs?? I keep checking my siding too, and so far ok there. Quite a few places here were missing chunks of siding after the last big wind storm in November.
I was looking at the fence, and the posts. The ground there is frozen. I think I can hammer in a spike and then use a 2x4 to brace it up for now. |

I lost about five panels from my metal roof. Unfortunately it's way too high and steep to get up there and do anything about it. Neighbors on one side had their driveway arch blow down and neighbors on the other side lost a couple trees. Friends down the street had a large tree in their yard come down on their car in the driveway.

Nothing that I know of, knock on wood.
Wife just showed me a video of the roof flying off of MSU Northerns Library Building.

I was reading reports of 125mph gusts around Missoula.
I did a walk around as the wind died down a bit and I am also missing some siding. I looked up and down the street here and there are an awful lot of shingles in lawns and the road. On a dog walk I saw a lot more. Seems that stuff that had a west facing side took the brunt of the damage. First time in 40 years of home ownership I have ever filed a claim. Will see how this goes. |

Between me and my two neighbors, we lost ~50 large trees spread over 110 acres. It is interesting because you can see the gust patterns in the lines of uprooted trees. The tractor grapple and the chainsaw are going to get some exercise for the next few days. It is nice to have power again too. It was out for about 11 hours. I need to buy those power crews a beer, they worked their asses off today in pretty crappy conditions. Watching them sway in the wind 60 feet off the ground in their buckets looked like no fun at all - and I'll bet their day still isn't over.

I found my siding, and it looks to be ok. Now if the strip on the house is good it might be ok to just pop it back in.. :D On the dog walk this morning, different route, there is quite a bit of fencing down (vinyl), lots of siding gone, and of course all the roof damage. I think my roof is the original to the house, so it most likely will be at 'end of life'. Will see. Oh, counted 8 fence posts I need to replace, but can come up with a brace for now.

Seeing train cars full of wheat getting blown over and houses with tires on the roof. People in my area of SW AK go wow a strong wind of 50mph and I tell them it is just a stiff breeze. Try winds over 100mph. I know some places in the Bulls lost there roofs. Also grass fire took some homes.

Lost a few rows of shingles on the shop, along with facia and soffit on the house. Unfortunately, State Farm says my $1000 deductible is more then the damage.
But the roofer I had come out and look said they can't get the color of my shingles anymore and the ins co is unwilling to do anything. The civic center lost 2 large trees over 100 yrs old. |
