The aftermath of several storms across the metro is taking a toll on homeowner's patience. Insurance companies are backed up and adjusters have even been called in from other states to help with damaged homes. "The winds were very high, I've never seen it like that before,” says homeowner Tita Almero. "The shingles were just flying. They were just coming off like they were ripped off by hand." The June 27th storm took a heavy toll across the metro. Ten days later, a patchwork of blue adorns roofs in the area of 165th and Corby. "I probably picked up like a hundreds, hundred-plus shingles just from my back yard and it looked like it was all ours," says Almero. She contacted her insurance company when she saw the damage to her house. "They did mention they were going to try to get to the houses that had more severe damages and they're going to try and work with them first and then come to ours. We're still waiting so everything's just like that." |
