    So it's storming like a mofo here in stl, tornado warnings, flash flood warnings, the works. Gods really pissed off this time. Hell the sky is deep red. I covered up my truck the best I could but I'm fearing some hail damage and there isn't much I can do but pray....

    Man I know that feeling all too well, my last 2 trucks both got hail damage. :mad: My last one was very minimal, but you could see it if you looked very closely. The previous one got it pretty bad, part of the reason for trading it. I am so glad I have mine in the garage. Still worry about getting hit at work or caught out somewhere. We tend to get a lot of these storms here and esspecially this time of year.

    I have heard of some throwing comforters on vehicles in a pinch to protect from hail. ;)

    Got a few blankets on before the tornado warnings. Theyre still saying multiple super cells are going to keep closing in :/

    Thankfully my taco is in the garage tonight, but on base tomorrow there's nowhere to park with overhead cover.

    Heard you're getting 60+ mph winds down at base? You're at Leonard wood correct?

    If I were you I say screw all the crap I got in the garage... I throw all that crap outside and put the precious taco in the garage. You can always buy new crap for cheap, but you can't buy a taco for cheap.

    Tornados are winding down but still lots of heavy rain. Barometric pressure at 29.7. Possibility of up to 70+ mph winds :( Fawk

    Haha anytime you wanna come over and help let me know. It would take days to clear out the garage. Got a canoe, bunch of files, mg, benches, tools, couple refrigerators, a media center...the list goes on
