Tough call on what the insurance company will do, sometimes it depends on the adjuster. More than likely they would replace the hood and trunk, cost is about the same to pdr it but this will give you clean sheet metal. The A pillars, body creases are going to be the key to whether its totaled or repaired. NADA clean tradein is about $20k for your car, retail is $23k so more than likely they are going to repair, not total. Also, depending on the insurance company, they will make the check out to you and the body shop, at least that's what State Farm does. In MN, body shops are governed on how much they can charge for insurance repairs so more than likely the insurance will cover it, I don't think you have to be concerned that you won't get enough to cover the reapairs.
I live in Savage and we didn't get any hail (thankfully) but saw the damage in EP. If you have a smartphone, download the Fox9 Weather app, I use it everyday and it also has the radar on it. I saw this storm coming on their radar hours before it hit. I use it all the time for car shows because I also have a 66 Nova wagon with an LS motor in it and won't take that anywhere if there are signs of storms coming. Rain is fine, its the hail and tornado's that I worry about.
