Yes, thankfully. I got home soon enough to snag a garage spot. Ha, my brother didn't. Hopefully he didn't catch any. But he drives a pontiac g6. So I figure the 8 was a bigger priority :D. But there was some serious hail, window breaking hail.

Yep I got caught in it coming down I35W leaving UNT campus. Doesn't appear to be any cracked windows or anything though!!

Just got a light rain in Denton area... woulda been fine, if it weren't for the fact that I had the roof of my house torn off yesterday and two gaping holes where the decking is being replaced...

I made it home in time to put the car in the garage. My wife made it home safely as well...unfortunately, there were a lot of people that didn't/couldn't find cover. I have a ton of folk in my neighborhood with busted windshields, dents everywhere and even some folk with no windows in the front nor back! We mostly had pea to marble sized hail, but at times, we got golf ball sized, but not many. Some people recorded baseball and softball sized.

I didn't have such luck... 10-12 dings... and a few dents. That hail was brutal. (North Fort Worth/Blue Mound area)

^^Oh drag dude, that sux. Mine was nestled safely in the garage thank God. Having a garage is priceless, especially on these occasions. Hope you get that damage fixed without too much hassle
