With Nebraska’s brutal storms, it’s possible for windows to take on storm damage and tornado damage even with protective storm shutters. Damaged windows can be especially hazardous because they often result in broken glass. During a severe storm, keep yourself and your family away from windows and broken glass by taking harbor in an interior room. After a storm, check for these signs of window damage:
The most obvious sign will be a shattered window. You’ll probably see a big pile of broken shards of glass on your floor and notice something is wrong.
-Check for cracks or holes in your window panes. If any glass has become damaged, board up broken windows until they can be fixed.
-Make sure your window frame hasn’t become damaged during the storm.
-Many homeowners forget about their glass doors when checking for storm damage. Glass patio doors can take on the storm damage just like your windows.
-Doors can take on impact from flying debris during a storm. ---Check exterior doors for scratches, dents, and other signs of a high-velocity impact.
