These things are not covered in insurance? I have never seen an hail storm before! One of those youtube videos showed a 9 cm cube that broke through some window. I wonder what would have happened to any solar panel installations on the roof?

Well Thankfully I am covered under insurance , and Just got it claimed but have to pay the Excess still..
Yes the one I am holding in my hand was bigger, It had melted by the time I went out and picked it ..

It measured almost 2 inches long..

Unfortunately insurance does not cover any damages due to nature’s fury. Yep, I agree with the title. Couldn’t be more apt. For everything that’s happening in all the parts of the world, its probably time for nature to take its revenge.
