    Is this urgent?

    Hi everyone, in the process of getting a new roof. So a roofer evaluated my house and while he was on the roof a shingle fell off. It might be 2-3 months (hopefully tops before o get a new replacement roof) is it okay to leave a missing shingle this long? It rains a fair amount. Thanks all
