Shawnessy got it pretty good. Luckily my Jeep doesn't look like it took any damage. Only real place to get dings is really the hood since everything else is upgraded with steel... But still. Most hail I think I've ever experienced and it was at least toonie sized

Great, our house is in one of the hardest hit areas, not looking forward to seeing how things look when we get home Monday.

It's been raining since late last night near Black Diamond, heavily for most of the time. It hailed a little during the night for a few minutes then went back to rain and the light show, but nothing more than pea size. I'm just worried for my basement as the water is pooling pretty good on the lawn now.
Too loud for Aspen
It was lightning/thunder, at least the initial boom was. It lit up the room and blipped the electricity in Walden.Originally posted by Squishy
Holy fuck! Did anyone else just hear/feel that boom around 330am? Boyfriend thinks it wasn't thunder/lightning and something blew up. It echoed in the distance after too but it woke us up. I looked outside and saw other neighbors looking out of their windows too. Unreal. Never experienced that in my life before.

So weird that there was no more thunder or lightning before or after it happened.

Everyone was up in our house as well. Felt like the house was coming down.
On hold with insurance for hail claim. Any recommendations for where to take the cars?

Sucks to hear about the hail damage.
Get your damage appraised ASAP, talk to your appraiser and bring the report to the dent repair shop of your choice to book an appointment. Eco Dentworks has good reviews here.

Yeah it woke me up around 3:30. The initial bang was huge and it kept rumbling for a few seconds

I didn't get hail but only tornado touched down just minutes away from my house. all my patio chairs moved about 10 feet from where they usually sit before I caught them drifting across my deck.

Mine only lost some paint on the hood, I didn't even know it was hailing yesterday

In the mid-NW, we had a little hail, but it was mostly pea sized and didn't do any damage to my car... My tomato plants, on the other hand, took a bit of a pasting. Thankfully all the fruits are low hanging at the moment, so only leaves and one stem broken. Still, could have been worse as some reports from this thread are saying

In Kincora - mostly had pea sized hail that came down fairly hard. Saw a few that were more the size of a nickle.

Just drove by Park and Jet at the airport. Every single car is fucked. Not even small dents, massive dents and paint damage on every roof trunk and hood. Pretty crazy.

Ouch glad I dropped my parents at the airport for vacation instead of them parking there.

Another storm heading for the middle of town. Warning's out.
Just finished installing my electrical panel, whole house surge suppressor. Glad I got one since were getting 3x the number of storms this year by the sounds of it.

Looking at the weather radar it looks like Balzac and the NE are going to get hit hard. The cell will move towards Strathmore. If you're in those areas get your shit inside.
