That storm knocked down a tree and the fence here. Dented up all our cars. My truck has hundreds of dents in it. I saw hail the size of tennis balls. Bunch of neighbors had their windows broken. Trees and powerlines down all over the valley. Just nasty. Insurance company says my truck is covered but we'll see how they handle it. I don't know anything about body work but I can't see how they would fix it properly other than bondo the crap out of it and repaint. Pretty much every part of the truck is dented. Can't believe none of the glass broke. They should have just made the whole damn thing out of glass...

That Smart car in the first photo deserved every piece of hail that hit it. I'm surprised it's not laying there in pieces. That storm was supposed to hit us all the way up here in Moab. We even had a tornado watch issued. But of course, no such excitement, the valley shelters the town.

Dam dude we did'nt get much just a lotta rain but looking from the westside to the valley you all got pounded, these clouds didn't look right. alota cars driving around dented up pretty good.
The world is getting its change like The Day After Tomorrow, just not that drastic.

Up here they are starting to use dry ice to take out hail dents.

From what I have heard they just get the car good and warm, idk how but maybe the sun

then work the dry ice in the dent and it pops out...

Would be neat to see it done

Dammit!

The insurance company decided to replace every body panel on the truck except the driver door and the tailgate. Just a matter of coming up with the deductible and arranging transportation when it's in the shop. The estimate is over $7000.

Dang what truck do you have??

Here's what we had yesterday. That sucker touched down not far from where I work. Sirens were blazing. Flipped over a school bus with 5 kids on it, but they are ok.
