Hail of size does a lot of damage....especially to houses (asphalt roofs can be devastated) and automobiles. The bodies take on the texture of golf balls and worse. Cleanup and repair is big business in the US. We lost our roof and had two cars damaged last fall. Total cost (mostly insurance paid) for us was over $10,000....and we were among the luckier ones in the storm path.
