Wood is far less a problem than metal but it attenuates RF. The 'spider web' arrangement is of little significance. The nylon cord causes virtually no interference. The combination of low mounting height and the attenuation caused by construction materials and wet shingles is more than enough to cause you to loose the Seattle signals.

Mounting outside, in the clear is the next logical step.
