From Patrick in Gadsden….
“Where: Foley, AL
When: Early Saturday morning (21st or 22nd)
What: Bad T’Storms, Damage to my roof
Attached are pictures of my roof damage….
My neighbor alerted me to the roof damage of my house in Foley. It apparently occured during this time, because I didnt notice it the day before.
I was wondering if this hole in my roof was caused by lightning (?). We had bad lightning from the storms, but I didnt see any evidence of burn marks or singe marks in the damage. Small particle debris was scattered about my front yard i.e pieces of wood, shingles, etc. like an explosion occured…On the other hand, could it have been ICE? There is NO signs of what caused this….no smoking gun….which leads me to beleive it melted. The roofers automatically said it could have been a meteorite, but nothing came through inside of the house. It’s a mystery. It was either lightning or a big chuck of ice. Can you help solve this mystery?”
