Stephenville and Erath County awoke to major storm damage Tuesday, and The Flash is following a number of incidents on our Facebook page, The Flash Today – Erath County. You should always be careful when assessing your property for damage because there could be multiple health and safety hazards. The roof is the most vulnerable part of your house during a storm so if you see that there’s damage to your roof contact the contractor Water Damage and Roofing of San Marcos so they can make your roof safe again. Here are some of the early photos we have received from Flash photographer Russell Huffman Dr. Chet Martin, a Flash contributor:
