The roof is the part of the home that the wind hits most strongly. Certain parts of the roof are more vulnerable than others to wind and storm damage. For example, the edges of the roof are at greater risk for wind damage than the center. Also, parts of your roof that contain loose shingles are more likely to be damaged by wind as well. That's why it's so important to get your roof inspected regularly so no parts of your shingle system are looser than others. When one section of loose shingles is ripped from your roof by strong winds, it can cause a sort of chain reaction where more sections that weren't as loose become vulnerable as well.
