Without seeing it up close, I would say shingle degranulation or erosion. Just from the constant water flow at the dormer corners, kind of like a downspout from a higher roof onto a lower.

Bingo ^^^^^^ Ive had this happen from gutters from and overhanging roof

Shingles under the dormers are not exposed to as much Weather as the other shingles. That's probably the original color of the shingles on that roof. Then Other shingles have essentially had a lot more wear and tear on them through Rain, sun, etc.

Well I am glad to see we are all on the same page, bc I had told the HO exactly what all of us have said. She called me today and said the hard rain we had took it all off and that it looks beautiful.. I sort of don't believe her.. she has OCD and I really think she just took her medicine this morning. I guess Ill find out tomorrow when she comes home from work!

But thanks for the support!
