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.

I have major hail damage from a storm back in March, need new hood, new roof piece, full repaint. All my windows were perfectly ok though.


Really sucks...

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
