Default Protection from hail

We had a serious hail storm once (actually had quite a few) in Jackson, MS. Our high school aged son had a full size Chevy Blazer. His vehicle stayed outside, ours were garaged. When the storm started he ran outside to cover the Blazer. He started yelling and I had to go out and protect him with a heavy blanket because he was being pummeled by the hail. I was wearing a very heavy hooded Main Guide coat and still felt the sting of the quarter sized hail.
