Detailed Solution

  • The pressure above a roof decreases when swift winds blowing over it. 
  • Pressure will decrease more rapidly as speed increases. In comparison to the pressure above the roof, the air pressure below the roof is higher. 
  • The ceiling is forced upward by this pressure difference.
  • Because of this, when high-speed winds start to blow, the roofs of the huts are blown off.

Hence the correct answer is Pressure above the roof decreases.
