We didn't get much hail in McKinney, but I was glad that both of our cars were in the garage.

Sucks, Is pea size hail enough to dent the car?

nope, but golf size definitely did some damage to my suv in Farmers Branch

Not a lot of golf size hail, but there was a few that dropped along with dime to quarter size.

Pea sized hail if you're sitting still usually won't do any damage.

Thank god my garage queen has a safe place to sleep

It was mostly pea sized, up to a few walnut sized. I got six dents on the hood, and six on the decklid. I got chris coming out Friday to fix them.

I saw a little bigger than baseball sized at my place in Euless. Luckily the S and my bike were in the garage, my daily was parked under the only big tree in my complex.
