Holy freaking windstorm, Batman!
I had a restless sleep last night. I kept dreaming that someone was breaking in to the house. There was weird creaking noises and occassional thumping and banging. The odd "thwack" and "crash" too. I dozed in and out all morning....figured I had just been thinking about Halloween too much or something.
Then a loud "bang" right as my alarm went off clued me in to the fact that I wasn't dreaming, there was something smashing around in the back yard. I dragged my tired ass out of bed, and sure enough....windstorm. Duh.
Looking out the bedroom window I couldn't see anything blowing around so couldn't figure out what was making all the racket. Then I wandered through the kitchen, only to see a big piece of gutter or flashing or whatever it is hanging off the back overhang. Hmmm....pretty sure that's not good. Then I went to look out the living room windows and sure enough there are about 8-10 pieces of the soffet laying on the back walk. OK, that's definitely not good.
The banging was the wind blowing the flashing into the siding every once in a while....plus pieces of the soffets are getting caught in the gusts and pushing up against the windows and siding as well.
Glad it's a rental! I've left housing a message and now it's their problem. WooT!
Oh, and there's a big piece of flashing in the front yard too, but I've looked around out there and can't figure out where it came from. Maybe it's from someone else's house....
