Internet as an art
Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.
I will introduce more rules later and when I finish doing that I will make an announcement post about that.
For overall temporary guide check out the rules here: https://www.reddit.com/r/hmmm/wiki/rules/
I won't be moving all of them here but I will keep most of them.
Anywhere there's wind strong enough to lift the ceiling off, is going to be debris flying around and smashing the roof into pieces.
Any pieces of the house which would stay grounded thanks to the straps would need to be replaced anyway.
The straps are probably tight enough that the roof needs to be refurbished after, even if the hurricane didn't cause any damage.
That's not even considering the likelihood of severe flooding.
House is fukked fam.
I'd rather replace a damaged roof instead of the whole structure and the resulting internal damage. Those straps are extremely strong. They can take a beating, but no doubt there's debris that can destroy them. If something is big enough to do that, then the wind is the least of the roofs concerns, because the rest of the house is fucked. The possible pros definitely outweigh the cons of using them, even if the don't end up working out.
