Roofing weather advisory
How each type of Central Texas weather affects roofing — and what to watch for.
Gusts of 40 mph and up can lift shingles whose seal strips have weakened with age. The National Weather Service treats gusts of 58 mph or more as severe. After a windy day, look from the ground for missing tabs along ridges, rakes and corners.
Central Texas thunderstorms can produce damaging winds, hail and torrential rain together. Secure patio furniture and trampolines, trim limbs that overhang the roof before storm season and park vehicles under cover.
Hail one inch or larger (quarter-size) meets the National Weather Service severe threshold and can bruise asphalt shingles. Dented gutters, vents and AC fins after a storm are good reasons to request an inspection.
Downpours expose weak flashing, cracked pipe boots and clogged gutters. Clear gutters before a big rain event and check ceilings and the attic (if safe) afterward for new stains.
Triple-digit days push dark shingle temperatures far higher than the air. Good attic ventilation reduces heat stress on shingles. Heat also makes shingles soft, so roofs should not be walked on casually in midday sun.
Occasional hard freezes can crack brittle shingles and burst attic plumbing. Ice is rare but dangerous; never go on a frosted or icy roof.

Not necessarily. Consider one after hail, gusts above roughly 50 to 60 mph, falling limbs, or if you notice missing shingles, dented gutters or new leaks. Our storm damage self-check can help you decide.
