Do you ever get caught out in a hail storm that damages your car?

when the storms are over the early warning is no good .There are still some tornado warnings but that is it .Peoples cars around here ruined by egg size hail and wind and heavy rain .I did not get an early warning sense my tv was not on and wish I had known the storm was coming did not even have a clue ,it just started hailing .tornado earthquake or hurricane early warning no matter what works .More people should care about other people our world has made us greedy and selfish and uncaring .

I'm a little to far south to give much of a report. (Most of the major storms were about 20-30 miles north of us) I think we ended up with just over a half inch of much needed rain. I've heard from all my Family and kids that were in the mix. Worst thing to report was my Brother that Lives in Clinton Ms. They had a tornado that came within 1/4 of a mile from his house. His neighbors tree fell on my Brothers truck. Not sure yet if it is totalled or not but my Brother said if that is all he lost then he feels pretty darn lucky, It was about time for a new vehicle anyway and had already been looking so maybe he will get that new truck/car a little sooner than planned.
Been watching the news and videos and it is sad seeing just how much damage and loss of life by a thunderstorm! WOW!
