Steve, something like 10 years ago we had a storm even windier than that, and a few houses did lose their roof. I thought mine was going to peel off, so after that I made steel brackets under the eves/soffits to hold it down. So I sleep a bit better knowing I've done that. At about 10pm there was a very weird sound so I went outside and so did the neighbour. He was yelling something about it's the house over there and pointing. I thought darn that's my rental. But luckily for me it was a three story house under renovation covered in scaffolding and a plastic bubble. Umm, not much plastic left this morning. My place is a wooden house so it just boogies about in a strong wind or earhquake then returns to normal.
