Strong Thunderstorm: What Concord Homeowners Need to Know
This evening’s National Weather Service Special Weather Statement includes Concord, NC and surrounding counties. Doppler radar is tracking a strong thunderstorm bringing wind gusts up to 40 mph and pea-sized hail. With the storm moving east at 25 mph, residents may experience gusty winds capable of knocking down tree limbs and blowing around unsecured objects. Minor hail damage to outdoor property is possible. Torrential rainfall may also lead to localized flooding—do not attempt to drive through flooded roads.

Potential Impacts on Homes and Neighborhoods
- Roofing: High winds and hail can dislodge shingles, damage flashing, or create hidden leaks.
- Transportation: Downed limbs and localized flooding can make travel hazardous in and around Concord.
- General Infrastructure: Loose items, patio furniture, and landscaping features could become projectiles or sustain damage.
Post-Storm Roof Inspection: What Should You Check?
Curious if your roof was affected? Here’s a quick checklist after the storm passes:
- Shingles: Look for missing, cracked, or curling shingles. Even small hail can bruise asphalt shingles and lead to leaks.
- Gutters and Downspouts: Check for dents from hail or blockages caused by fallen leaves and limbs.
- Attic and Ceilings: Inspect for water stains, damp insulation, or drips indicating a roof leak.
- Flashing and Vents: Ensure the metal around chimneys and roof joints hasn’t lifted or been dented.
