Oh no sir. You are going to pay for that....yes...you. One way or another, you are going to pay for it all.

Lots of hail here but for just a few minutes and it was mostly small, maybe marble size. I did a quick check when it quit and didn't see any damage.

A tornado could suck the roof off of your house and they'd find a way to weasel out of paying.

Had them for almost 30 years until 2 years ago when I switched to USAA. They were great on the one water claim but sucks when considering the roof. Agent called me yesterday wanting my business back. Funny (not really) that he mentioned my new roof (which I paid out of my pocket for). Gave me an interesting quote...but I just can't.

please no
there is no damage
that would warrant replacing that roof

Re: HAIL!! - 04/27/24 12:52 AM

most of the hail around DFW
will not be detrimental to
the integrity of your roof
these shingles can
withstand a lot

but if you want a new roof
that you dont really need
i gaurantee
i can get you 1

Most likely Bob was at work. We had an alert at the university and were told to shelter in place. I was not on campus today, but still got the email and text.

Got bad in Mt Pleasant. Trees on cars, trees on houses. Don’t know how much rain we got. We live out towards Lake Welsh and haven’t had power since around 5pm. Nobody in this area has any.

We were at a sporting clay shoot in south Fort Worth at Alpine when it hit, had 26 teams out on the course scramble back to the pavilion dodging lightening bolts and quarter size hail, popped a top at 11, had a blast and luckily no one got hurt[Linked Image]

I didn't get any hail that I know of but I had constant lightening for several hours . First time I was glad that my Siberian ( terrified of storms ) passed away in December . He'd a had a heart attack last night .

I remember those days when I was growing up in NE Kansas. One storm hit Topeka hard and then pretty much stayed on the ground all the way up to Leavenworth. I was outside in it, like an idiot, because I knew the casements around the basement window would fill up with water and I'd be having to clean that stuff up in the AM, after it leaked through.

We drove through that area hit in Topeka about a couple of weeks later and you could see the storm's trail, going from SW to NE, was a swath of destroyed house about 4 blocks wide. Felt bad for those folks.

Now, out here in western Val Verde County, I get excited by a few tenths of an inch of rain.

So much potential of this line were anywhere other than a thread about hail.
