Monday’s storm activity in Mountain Home was brief, but it caused damage to a local residential complex. The wind blew the roof off West End Social, formerly the River Rock Inn, on U.S. Highway 62B, and a portion of the roof landed on a vehicle parked at the complex.
Carlos Cardenas is the owner of the vehicle, and he describes the events leading up to seeing the roof on top of it.
