Roof, structurally, is not the same as roof cover. My understanding is that a small portion of the cover has come off, but have not heard that the roof supporting structure has been damaged.

I understand that. I never claimed that I thought the roof integrity was compromised by the loss of cover. I only argued that in this case, the roof IS an integral part of the building stability. I didn't mean the foam, I meant the actual roof structure.

Clearly, the superdome roof structure would likely FAIL in an F3 tornado-like Cat5 direct hit and the 200MPH claim was vastly overrated.
