And I'm stuck here at work!!!! My car is sitting outside I don't know why I drove it to work today They weren't calling for anything severe, and this popped up! I pray we don't get the golf ball sized hail there were saying was possible, I really don't want my car all dented up!!!! I really want to start cussing right now, but this is a government facility..................

I had the same thing happen to me a couple of weeks ago. Out of nowhere it started to Hail and i was several miles away from my garage and driving would have just made it worse.
Long story short I went out and everything was fine.. and we had very large hail.. about the size of a quarter.
I attribute it to the 7 coats of Zaino.. even though I can't prove it.

Dude that sucks. I hope you're able to move it or do something before it gets damaged.

I completely lucked out!!!!! Nothing large enough to cause damage to my car, but there were reports of up to 2" hail as close as 3 miles away! I live in an apartment, and made sure I had a garage just because of this......but the garage doesn't help when the car's not in it!

I was on the way home about a week ago as a big thunderstorm was just cranking up. I heard what sounded like a BB ricocheting off of my rear window. That got my attention, so I starting watching my hood to see if anything was bouncing off of it.

Sure enough, I saw a small hail stone hit and rebound. I think reflexes kicked in - fortunately I was parallel with a BP gas station. I made the smoothest 90 degree turn that I've ever executed and got under the cover over the gas pumps and rode the rest of the storm out.

That you, BP!

Ha ha ha, that's great!!!! I did that the first time I got stuck in the rain!!!! I didn't even want it to rain on my beautiful new car, I'm a little over that now though.......
