Thermal cycling does the damage in Hidden Meadows — hot afternoons, cool nights, and materials expanding and contracting against their fixings all year. We see it on Hidden Meadows roofs every week. Hidden Meadows gets its rainfall in a handful of concentrated winter storms, which means drainage that sat dry collecting debris has to move everything at once. Roof surface temperatures in Hidden Meadows routinely run well above the air reading, and every material on the roof covering feels it.
