Was there a gap between the roof and the tin? I wonder if that would let it 
resonate and make it loud.

A metal roof was put on our 'new' barn wings post-WWII.  It was very heavy gauge
corrugated aluminum, probably made in the rolling mills that used to do bomber 
skins.
Where it was not damaged mechanically by other storm debris, and where the nails
didn't pull out in the wind, etc., the roof is still good.  But that other 
damage all adds up,
and very little of that original roof is actually all that good anymore.

This is in the PNW, not that far from Kaiser's aluminum mills powered by the 
Columbia
river.  Might only have been a regional thing, and probably temporally limited.

Also, _very_ noisy in hail and such.
