Default Windshield Replacement

So the other day when we had that real bad rain nad stuff I was driving on I-94 and a rock or something must have hit my windshield and make a little crack in it right below my wiper blade. Well it was sort of warm that night and the next day was cold as shit so the crack grew almost to the middle of the window. Now its all the way over to the passanger side of the car. Tomorrow someone is coming out to my work and replacing the window right there for $234. Point is weather sucks really bad!!
