What type of damage can a hail storm do to a roof top ac unit?
Hail Storms can bring a ton of damage to homes, and especially those vulnerable rooftop air conditioning units. In Dallas, I have seen softball size hail that will damage air conditioners badly. If the hail hits in the right spot right on the vulnerable fan vents, it can break through and damage the fans and any other internal components. So it really depends on the size and severity of the storm to determine how much damage the hail can really do. Also something to keep in mind if you notice hail damage to your AC unit is that your roof may also have sustained damage during the onslaught. I would have both inspected especially if there is visible damage.

Does a car get more hail damage when driving or parked?
A car is generally more susceptible to hail damage when parked, as it has no mobility to evade the hail. When driving, the speed can help reduce the impact of hail, as the vehicle moves through the storm rather than remaining stationary. However, if the hail is particularly large or the storm is severe, even a moving vehicle can sustain damage. Overall, parked cars are usually at a higher risk for significant hail damage.
