Can anyone tell me how cob fares in hailstorms. I'm moving out on the rural high plains and hailstorms can be pretty intense. Thanks a bundle!

Hi Morgan,
My 120 year old adobe home has the original lime plaster still. It's more about the exterior "sacrificial" layer than what's underneath it.

All Blessings,
Bill
