Nolan Kienitz Posted April 10, 2008 Report Share Posted April 10, 2008 I'm sure y'all have seen the weather reports and that there were some rather strong winds that blew through North Texas overnight. I had inspected a property this past Monday in the neighborhood in Allen, TX that was one of the focal points for the path of "straight line or tornadic" winds. Client called me today and asked for me to stop by the home and recheck. The client's home sustained some damage like cracked rafters, cracked Hardie siding missing shingled, blown over fence, A/C condenser with damage due to blowing debris, gas flue pipes disconnected at joints in attic due to extreme movement. All in all is pretty good shape ... considering. Images attached are two from the house immediately adjacent to the property I inspected. It is amazing the strength of 'flying debris' and resulting circumstances. Very quickly puts one in awe of Mother Nature.

Brad Manor Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 Yep, Nature can be an incredible force. I got caught in a tornado in Salt Lake City in 1999 (for a few seconds I was sideways-holding onto a building guy). I saw some things that I still aren't sure were possible. -Brad Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brandon Whitmore Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 Hey, at least they didn't try to say you should have foreseen this, or missed it during the inspection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
