Noticed some more to the right after crossing Rte. 44. No damage noticed along Meggison. We were out of The Villages for the next few days and may have missed any news

Wondering if there were other clusters of damage indicating areas of higher winds?

Were the winds noted as higher than other areas of the Villages. Seems like I heard the that the winds were in the 60 to 70 MPH range.

Observation was that it is hard to believe that shingles lost at the level on newer homes. My home had no damage in Lake Sumter Landing area even with 18-year-old roof.

Would be interesting if affected persons had noticed any path.
Same here.....LSL area, 17 year old roof and no damage.
