***OFFICIAL 2026 WEATHER THREAD***

You wonder when insurers are going to start putting a cap on hail damage. Ie, will cover 50% or something. Cars, roofs, siding. It seems to be far more frequent and more severe damage. Ive know people to have 3 roofs replaced. In less than 10 years.

Honestly, part of the problem as well is all the company’s that go around after every storm and tell you you need a new roof, when sometimes might not be necessary. Then when they get the bid on the house it’s high cause they know insurance will cover.

It doesn't help when you have drive-by roofers that try to say you need a new roof, when you actually don't.

This happened to my parents about 5 years ago after living in their house for 20 years. They even claimed that there was hail damage on the garage doors, which was clearly from me hitting tennis balls off a baseball bat at it as a kid. They figured they'd get a new roof out of it since it was 20 years old.

Daughter and family live In halbur just talked to her at 2:30 this afternoon and she said numerous windows busted at their house and one of the vehicles back window busted out by large hail
Oh my, that really stinks. Seems like the set up is there for more storms to pop up
 
America's Christmas City*? But of course!


* Once neglected to take the town Christmas decorations down for a whole year and it became a running joke that actually ended up on the welcome signs outside of town.
My mom is from Wyoming and grandparents are buried there- so still go back every so often. They leave the lights up year round and have some big community thing in December according to her to turn the lights back on for the holidays
 
Every time there is a big storm system moving through the state, I learn of 3-4 towns I've never heard of.
I was just through there coming and going last weekend. I used tell people that I spent the weekend in both Toronto and Wyoming and would get some weird looks.

Will this be before or after paying for all of those commercials on TV?
