The same thing did almost happen to me. A week after I got my car my dad wanted to drive it to work to show his friends there. He works at the GM Spring Hill plant, and he's told guys about when I had it on pre-order. He says they always ask "Has he got it yet"? So I was going to let him drive it because they said they haven't seen one in person yet. The day he was going to drive it I was getting Lojack installed, and it took a little longer than expected so he had to go to work without taking the car. Turns out that day Spring Hill gets hit by a freak storm with golf ball sized hail! They showed pictures on the local news of cars damaged. I got lucky on that one |

Wow, I'd seen on the news that North Jersey had gotten hail the other day. But even their video wasn't as bad as yours. It was a sunny beautiful day all day that day here in South Jersey. I never would have believed the weather could be THAT different just a couple hours away.

That's not hail. That's sleet. You want to see hail, move to Kansas City where it is the size of a golf ball or larger.

Hasn't stopped raining since the hail storm on Monday. More rain this weekend. I want to get some good shots of the car and post them here for you guys to see. Yeah, the Cobalt turned out ok. Took in a little bit of water on the driver's side. Nothing big, but it does smell heavily of "must" now. :(
