If I could offer you one piece of unsolicited advice, it'd likely be to secure your home with hurricane straps (i.e., clips, ties, etc.) that fasten each truss to the wall of the structure.

Tbh Im a bit shocked that in most parts of the country, these are not actually required. But hurricane straps better protect the roof from getting lifted off your house by extreme wind. Not just in hurricanes, but all strong wind, even up to EF-2 tornadoes. Straps are just a couple hundred bucks at MOST, and they provide better protection for everything/one inside your house from more extreme weather. They also keep your roof from becoming a wind-born projectile that smashes into something else... keep that off your conscience.

Yall, our weather is doing weirder things now... Tornadoes in Chicago, hurricanes in New York, now a #hurriquake in SoCal. So consider installing hurricane straps.

@Benblades Oh yes, how could I forget the fucking #hurriquake lmao 😂

I thought this area got off light from the #hurriquake but then Thing 2 mentioned that a neighbor got a tree dropped onto their car.
Seven years later, and the my social media feed is once again dominated by posts about #Trump and #Hilary.

I feel like I'm living my own #GroundhogDay.

#LA the day after the tropical storm and the local earthquake: ☀️ Gorgeous, sunny, back to same old same old. Surfers out.
Apparently #hurriquake is an actual hashtag thing now.
Off to Europe for a few days to see relatives. It's either that, or wait around here for the rain of blood and plague of locusts.
