Even without harmful weather or hail, high and strong winds can end up damaging the roof of your home pretty badly. These winds can harm your roof and cause many problems, such as missing shingles, leaks and gutter problems. On an average, roof shingles can withstand wind that blows at the rate of 90 mph. However, anything more than that can cause significant harm to them. This is why the shingles of your roof suffer the most at the hands of strong winds.Strong and high winds don’t affect all surfaces in the same way.
