Answer 1

In the context of hurricane categories, a Category 1 hurricane is generally considered the lowest category that can cause damage to shingles or roofs. While Category 1 storms can have sustained winds of 74-95 mph, they can still lead to some damage, particularly to roofs, siding, and trees.
