Yeah, Emerson seemed to be the only pocket of the storm in Jersey that had hail. Some had snow, and others had just fat rain. I really lucked out, eh? My Cobalt took in some water on the driver side and it looks like it came in from the bottom of the car. Likely the door. No roof leaks though. The Camaro was air tight. Just waiting for that boat mod from Hennesey to be released.

Hope all is well. I kept mine in the garage due to the possibility of hail/thunderstorms. You gotta get that stuff outta the garage and put the car back in its rightful spot. You may not be so lucky next time.

I ran out to protect my car with a lg blanket durring a hail storm and a lg baseball size hail hit me in the top of the head, blood was everywhere. when I came back in the house my 3 year old daughter said " mommy you got shot in the Head". two years latter I can still feel the spot it hit on my head. Dont go out in the storm! The size of the Hail can change very Quickly.

Wow! These were definitely marble-sized. Almost perfect ice marble pellets. Never seen anything like it in my life.

Thank God the car came off without a hitch. GM could use this as a nice marketing ploy - NO scratches or even a drop of water inside the car? That's good quality!

camaroqueen · 06-16-2009, 10:41 AM

What a nightmare! I cringed the whole video. You must of felt helpless!

Glad you and the camaro are ok.

Might be an omen though...put the tools out of the garage and the camaro in!

Blame it on global warming!

Lucky the SS didn't float into the Cobalt. Now you just have to look for whatever little creature washed up underneath..

Thunderbuda · 06-16-2009, 10:52 AM
