Default Heavy storms coming in tonight.

There is HEAVY storms coming in tonight. We have heavy wind, lots of rain, and a big possibility of large hail storms with large sized hail on our way, and I have no garage space.

I hope I dont get hail damage because id be pretty furious...

We have a small pavilion we use for the semi-annual sidewalk sales in town that I could use over my car in that instance, only problem would be the wind... secureing that sucker down... hiding under a tree would save you from hail mostly, but wind would throw sticks all over your car...
OOH! have one of your friends leave your car in a parking garage overnite, or something... and have them drive you home... (or family)

something that can protect your car is commonly called a garage

heavy winds mean floppy dinky tent garages will only cause more damage...

And if you park your car under a tree I doubt ya'll need to worry about a sticks... more like the whole ****in tree...

GO hurry quick buy a Bubble!!!!! That storm missed us barely. It got real windy and knocked and limb out of our tree and it barely missed my car. Then the wind just quit. But our weather is soooo F**ked up, from the Amunition Plant. Damn radiation.

you honestly believe thatt is the cause. I think you should be more worried about your kids having extra limbs then it causing bad storms.

Matt - hopefully all will be ok. Over at MPH one of the wives went out and put quilts and blankets over the top, hood and trunk of her husbands car right before the hail came and it did not damage. Something to try...

Karma would do me a favor if I get hit with hail. If I get hail damage, I get put to the front of the line of the hail damaged cars at work, and ill have the ticket over-estimated, and ill have the job done on the side. Ill use the extra money for a supercharger.

Weird how that works, eh?

I still dont want to go through the hassle though. its almost 10 and its still lookin fine.

No. no extra limbs and all that just weather splits around us if it comes from the north or east.
