Yup. Afraid with good reason. Then people come along and take advantage of them while ostensibly helping them. Happens all over the place and really annoys me. At least around here it's mostly rural and flat so people know that trees are wind breaks. In fact on the east side of town the city encourages people to plant rows of trees on their property lines for just that reason.
What I saw here last year was overworked roofers all the way into the fall because of a hail storm the October before which got followed by Goliath. No one who was a certified roofer had to seek out business. People came to them. My house only lost a dozen shingles to the blizzard but had enough hail damage that insurance paid to replace the whole roof. All we paid was the deductible and the cost of upgrading to metal. The shingles were in good enough shape to be used as a layer of insulation so that made the job easier and quicker for the roofer. Lots of other people also upgraded to metal. I think pretty much everyone who could afford to did as it stands up to the winds and hail much better than standard shingles.

It's always the first Saturday night in November, and the second Saturday night in March (or at least it was this year). They always change the clocks around 2:00am Saturday night/Sunday morning. That way it doesn't interrupt anyone's schedule for work, school, etc. during the week.
