On Sunday, March 31st a wicked thunderstorm ripped through parts of San Antonio. The fast moving storm included the usual lightning, rain, and thunder, but in some areas of the city, it also dropped some pretty large hail. Hail stones can be pretty vicious and as you can see in the photo, we got quite a bit.

After a hail storm, it is a good idea to go out and check your home and any other property that was exposed. Oftentimes, a hailstorm leaves damages on the roof, siding and windows. Many insurance companies will allow you to claim the hail damage to your roof or your car, so mark down the time of the storm, the damage done (photo documentation is always a good idea), and call your insurance company to see if you’re covered. Many San Antonio residents use a good hail storm as a chance to replace their roof when damage occurs.
