We saw this system hit Calgary as we were on our way back from Dinosaur Provincial Park. We'd stopped in Strathmore for lunch just before 1:00 and were outta there by 1:30, just before the storm hit that town. It certainly looked ominous, and as we left Strathmore, my son identified the rotation and potential for funnel clouds. Sure enough, I read in this morning's paper there was one near Strathmore.. Luckily the part that hit Calgary appeared to miss us here in the deep southeast.

I had to park at the Airport with the G last week because someone was borrowing my truck for a few days. I heard it hit pretty bad around the airport- and talking to the guy in the booth it sounds like at least 1 person called in with a damaged windshield asking about liability. I didn't care about liability- I just wanted to know if my G is going to look like a big red golfball. The suspense is killing me- and I just found out I'm stuck up here for another WEEK! Argh!

My 07 G got mangled in a nasty storm in Kansas a couple weeks ago. I had to watch from the office and weep as the golfball and above sized hail beat the crap out of my car. My insurance is forking out $3200 for the damage. I was wondering on what the general opinion is about paintless dent repair is if they quote me cheaper. If I can put a few hundred in my pocket that would be awesome. Obviously it is dependent on the shop, but overall do they have decent results?
