    Tornado in Columbus *Now With Pics*

    So, im sitting at work, it got really really loud. I look outside, and there are pools of hail just streaming down...its louder than ever...and sirens are going off. I just checked weather.com, a Tornado touched down in Columbus.

    I hope everyone is safe, I know the power is out here and we are running on generators. I hope my Cougar is ok!!

    *Edit*
    As we all know, my car has suffered. I feel like crap now, this is how I feel....

    Here are some pics, mind you I do have a black car so sometimes its hard to see these dents without changing you view and how the light hits the car. I have circled some of the damage, also, there are numerous pelts on my door, roof, and pillars but there was no good way the camera could capture it.

    Weather Stripping


    Cracks in Tailight


    Fender and Sidemarker

    Haha, I think id pretty much just collect insurance money, and maybe throw in a new 3l, with the thought of a supercharger. But, i still hope it oks. Our windows here at work pressurized and leaked water. I hope the cougar isnt flooded. I also hope I dont hydrolock the engine

    I just saw his side marker, and the clear part was just clean broke off it was pretty crazy. But I bet whatever caused the dent in his fender caused the broken sidemarker.

    Re: Tornado in Columbus

    When I got home, I investigated more. My taillight is cracked, weather stripping has pelts all over it, hood has paint chips like a mother, fender has dents and that scrape that was probably caused by something else (as stated by Dan) sidemarker cover is missing, random dents all over the car. My insurance company will be getting a call in the morning, this is something I really dont want to live with.

    *sigh* another deductable, higher insurance rates, and a free paint job. Whatever shall I do....

    Re: Tornado in Columbus

    This would be a tiny bit difficult for many of the dents.

    Re: Tornado in Columbus

    I was at Barnes & Noble during the hailstorm; we had quarter-sized hail, and I was scared that my car was going to get battered. It LOOKS okay now; it's hard to tell, since I'm waxed and the water was all beaded up on it. By my buddy, who was there too, had a dozen or more dimples on his hood and roof (but he drives a Civic, and they are made of tinfoil).

    Knock wood, the Cougar looks fine.
