Ok maybe not that big, but big enough to do damage.

Great!

Default No.

And I went out to inspect and wound up getting pelted in the skull. Duh, falling chunks of ice, don't go outside.

Default Are you serious??

Put it under a tree! The canope from the tree should slow down the hail enough to prevent damage. Although there remains the risk that the hail takes out some or part of the tree...but still, I'd rather replace a hood, rather than repair a hail damaged car!

Default That's what is insurance is for. Claim time and a new paint job.

Lucky guy. :-)

Default No trees to park under, and I'm past the point of caring.

1" square size hail, but it started out a bit larger. Looks just about over now.

Still, I took one right in the head.
