A twister went thru downtown here a few years back. Took a strip of windows off the full heigth of one corner of a skyscraper.

Good news, construction wizards have these steel slat panels that go on quick and seal the shell to weather so repairs can begin quickly.

Bad news, they’re STILL in place.

Other bad news, I’m holding Chase shares, more than I should.

Ulp!
