    I’m terrified of what crews will have to go through to mitigate and clean up what will clearly become a massive sunlight leak after this. Do we know how this will impact local groundwater?

      To be fair solar cells are not made of sunshine (ha) and daysies. Glass plastic and aluminum should not be left rotting. But of course you are right there will be next to no impact beside some garbage on some field

        Typically they are tempered glass like a car windshield, so the outer layer may shatter with severe enough hail, but it should all stay together.
