Was that about golf ball size (or just under)? That's terrible man...same thing happened to my CSVT, but it was actually a message from God to redo the entire exterior

Man that sucks, we had some marble sized hail yesterday in Kansas, along with four tornadoes that were on the ground that completely destroyed a ton of houses. Glad that my house was missed.

When people ask me why I pay $50/mo for a garage, living in tornado alley...if only they could see those pics.

Had baseball-size hail locally on Sunday (broke windows on cars and buildings). Biggest one I could run out and snag in my locale was in between quarter-sized and golf-ball. It hailed a couple minutes before it even started raining.

Damaging hail really is something you have to assume will threaten your car in certain states
