Does Florida get hailstorms?

In Texas, there’s no way I would install solar panels with all the hailstorms we get here.

Sometimes we got hail. but I can’t ever recall a hailstorm.
Maybe a busted windshield, but not a lot of them. We had a lot of lightening strikes though. A lot of people learned what not to do in a Thunderstorm. Unfortunately for them they never got to demonstrate what they learned.

Yes, but not frequently.

I can’t say exactly when but I believe it was in the ‘90s, when I was living in central florida. There was a hail storm in Seminole County that did so much damage to so many cars that body shops 60 miles away were booking people three months out plus to do any work on their cars.

A friend of mine owned a Body Shop Supply business and he was ecstatic. He was making money hand over fist for a while lol

There is a big steel plant in Midlothian that just installed what has to be over a hundred acres of solar panels. When the next Mayfest storm hits it’s going to be a mess.
