Cat on a leaky roof
(instead of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof)
You might remember we had a ton of rain a few weeks ago, which leaked around our chimney flashing. That was repaired. On Tuesday 2/16 we had straight line winds come through our
neighborhood. They blew the glider off the back porch, blew our porch ceiling fan up against the ceiling and ripped up the repaired flashing and shingles. BUT we didn't know this until it rained really hard on 2/21...lo and behold we had more leaking inside. So they wrapped our chimney in
tarp.
Then we had tornado warnings and watches all day on 2/23. Heavy winds all day
they huffed and puffed until they blew our neighbors basketball goal over on
his car. (This is where Kasi lives...the dog Mom walks).
Some how both cars only had minor scratches on them no dents and it missed the
windshield too.
The basketball goal has been there for nearly 15+ years and never ever blown over. It kept falling over all day long. Finally Kasi's Dad moved it to here. Any buddy wanna play a game of hoops?
I'm happy to report the roof was repaired on 3/2/16 and the tarp is G O N E
I'll play Madi!!

YIKES! You're sure having some scary weather, Madi - now please come down off the roof!
ReplyDeleteoh boy that wind can do a lot of mischief...I hope the indoor-pool ios gone soon and you can fix efurrything... specially when Santa comes to visit you through the chimney :o)
ReplyDeleteWow, that is a scary amount of wind. Glad no one was hurt!
ReplyDeleteWow, they are so lucky they didn't have more damage from the basketball pole. The weather has been a little scary here too. Lots of wind and rain. Glad your house is fixed Madi. You all have a great week end.
ReplyDeleteWe're very glad the damage was limited.
ReplyDeleteI'll shoot for hoops with you, Madi! Sounds like our weather in Virginia. We had tornado warnings here the same day--Feb. 23--and an EF3 hit the next county over. Scary! I'm glad you got the roof repaired.
ReplyDeleteNo more leaks - YAY!!! Our grand boys would love to use that basketball hoop

Wow, Madi, with high winds and tornado watches do you feel like Toto from the Wizard of Oz?!
ReplyDeleteWe are glad they have fixed the chimney and roof, no more leaks!

OMC OMC what a time you have had, and there you are up on that high roof.. glad it is fixed. i would have been scared to death with those kinds of wind.. hope the fan is still usable...
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you got your roof fixed! That basketball goal was sure tired, wasn't it? I bet standing up for 15 years is exhausting. I'd be falling over too!
ReplyDeleteGlad you were up there repairing the hot tin leaky roof

That kind of weather is scary! Glad you all survived and the roof is fixed. about 10 yrs ago we lost about an 8 x 4 foot section of shingles off our roof due to high winds.

I am glad that the scary weather has moved on and your leaks have been repaired. We have had to do foundation repair work so we can empathize with you. I looked forward to wine time every single day they have been here... :)
ReplyDeleteThat sounds like crazy Kansas weather! We're so glad your roof is OK now! We know all too well what a MESS that can be!

Glad the room has been repaired. Leaks can ruin everything down below them.
