Screen damage

Storms can happen in the middle of the day or sometimes in the middle of the night. No matter what the case before you brave the weather outside take precaution and see if there are any debris that may still be a hazard. One way you can do that is to look out of your window. As you do, look at the screens and observe if there are any holes or tears in the screens.

 

2. Gutter damage

Gutter Damage

Window screens are mostly shielded for the most unless the storm is directional. As you’ve looked out of your home to ensure your own safety before venturing outside, Walk out and look up. What you most likely see if the storm has passed is a nice rainbow. But if you turn around, you might be looking at your gutters. Take a good look at them. Look for any indentations or dents. A lot of times gutters can look fine at first glance and then have significant damage upon further inspection.

 

3. Fence damage

If you have a vinyl or wooden fence and a hailstone hits it, you will be able to tell. Age can have a factor in whether or not your fence sustains significant damage, yet it will often be an indicator of how big the average hailstone could be after a storm. A lot of times hail splatter will fade over time.
