Vinke is right that kind of hail can ruin a good roof.

I never saw much hail as a kid. Seems like now it’s always. My mom says it’s a sign of the times

We are lucking out with not having the hail. When that suze comes with a 50-60 mph wind they can take out all the windows and the siding on ones house too. 25 years ago the town of St Nazianz had 100 mph winds rain and hail. We were 2 miles south of that town and had limited damage. All the windows on the west sides of the houses blew out and the hail flew through and took out the other windows. So much hail that people were using scoop shovels to get it our of their houses. All the vinal siding lay at the bottom of the house in millions of pieces. There was so much ice in the fields that the alfalf was cut down and the ground got so cold it went back into dormancy.
We had several field and town clean up days. We had several bus loads of prisioners that came and helped.They were very able and capable workers.

Call your insurance .... Have them send out a claim adjuster...
I miss storm chasing....

Don't use the roofing company they recommend unless your agent is friend or family

No hail here, and no tornadoes. Did have winds a ton of lightning and thunder. Two neighbors have trees across their driveways. We've been out of power since 7 last night, still out. According the the WE energies map, it might be a bit for us. Lots of scattered outages

All good now, of course it was after I made it to work. At least the wife can get ready for her day.

How's your roof?

We had some small hail here in Oregon, but it didn't do any damage.

Sounds like no injuries from the tornadoes, so thats good news but definitely buildings damaged and destroyed.

Saw video clips of damage in the Mayville and Juneau area. Several structures were destroyed. West of Wausau near Colby and Rib Falls there were several buildings destroyed also. Very localized damage from what fire fighters were stating.
