Santa Ana winds are dry, strong winds that blow from the desert toward the coast and reach the Inland Empire in the cooler months. They lift the windward edges of a roof first: shingle tabs, ridge caps and edge flashing. A check of the edges after a gusty night finds most of the early damage.

An attic runs hot under a roof because the sun heats the roof surface and the heat passes into the space below. In a closed or poorly vented attic the hot air cannot escape, so it bakes the deck and the underlayment from below. Vent and insulation checks reduce that heat.

Sun and heat act on every roof covering, but each covering responds in its own way. Shingles dry and lose granules, tile can crack at its edges, metal moves with the heat and flat membranes blister at their seams. The right choice depends on the roof, the budget and the look wanted.
