You set the curse... The god are trying to destroy yours and all the other Canadian Corvettes stuck at Bowling Green

For all those whose cars may be sitting in Bowling Green lots, the Gods were shining down on you. The easterly travelling storm did not drop any hail on that part of Kentucky. It was close (approximately 100km north).

On a side note, I am not sure if hail would have the same effect on the polymer/composite bodies of the Corvette versus aluminum or metal vehicle bodies?

LEGEND: BLUE cloud/rain icons are reports of hail - GREEN are reports of high winds.

It typically doesn't do the same as with metal vehicles. It will crack the paint though and if it gets to softball size like id did here a couple years back it could crack the polymer.
