Thanks guys. The family is fine. My 6 year-old daughter and I were hanging out in the front yard watching the storm roll in. Luckily my wife was not home, so her car was damaged by little hail but spared the big stuff.
My 1976 GMC pickup fared well! Thick steel is awesome, but it still dents.
My work truck, a 2014 Ford Explorer - WHOA, thin metal. 3 windows were broken out. the roof was caved in about 6 inches in one spot (crazy!).
The 2006 Subaru WRX... Hammered. Bent the sheet metal so bad that the glass company could not glue the glass back in. I had to buy a rear hatch from a scrap yard (it turned out to be cheaper anyway...)
The 1997 Geo - yeah, the project car.
It was inside the garage. I've taken a lot of light hearted heat from my wife over that one...
The decking on the roof of our house was punched through by 50-60 hailstones, most the size of grapefruit. In two spot the sheetrock in the ceiling of the house was punched out.
We had 11 windows get broken out. That kind of scared the kid a little, but I warned her that it was about to happen: "The windows are about to break, don't freak out, ok?" "Do they have to break?"... lol.
Insurance dragged their feet, took 10 days to get an adjuster out. He signed up for a new roof, and new windows, and some flooring. Interestingly, they are balking at cleaning the broken glass out of the front yard and flower beds - said they don't cover "landscaping" and the broken glass isn't part of the window anymore....
We've got the roof patched with tarps and plastic, but we had a big storm last night and found a few more leaks. I'm getting good at making little tarps inside the house to drain multiple leaks into one bucket. It's a skill I may add to my
Curriculum Vitae.
