Long Island Hail Storm

FastPaced · 08-02-2011, 06:56 PM

You know what's crazy? I work in Tarrytown, upstate NY, and I was going to stay late (till 7PM) if my girl had to work. She wasn't, so I left at around 5pm. It was like 6PM and my mother calls me (she works upstate, too,) flipping out about the storm, asking if I was still at work. I didn't realize how bad the situation was till I got to work today and every one asked me how was my car. I was confused until I looked out the window into the parking lot and saw some of their cars with dents all over them. I was like

.

I'm thankful I left before it happened.

I watched this storm at work. It went right around us. It knocked out power at West Hampton and delayed alot of flights coming in and out of my airport.

P.S Z was in the garage.

You sure you guys don't live in Iowa?!?!?! Dude, that happens like weekly here. Annoying. The storm late last year, caused so much damage around here, including both my daily drivers, along with hundred of other cars in the city. PDR guys were making a killing.

(that's why, Zena never gets driven in ANY precipitation

)

Now that I'm driving my Z to work in cedar rapids, I'm TERRIFIED of hail. I've been checking the weather religiously, haha.

Unrelated side note, it only cost me $55 to fill up almost my whole tank with 91 octane today (only thing available close to my work). I was expecting 80+ every time so not bad.
