Recent hail storms

Recent hail storms with confirmed NOAA reports, the counties they crossed, and what homeowners in those areas should do about their roofs.

We write these up only for storms that dropped hail of 1.5 inches or larger over a populated area — the size range that damages asphalt shingles. If your storm isn't here, the hail history tool searches every NOAA report near your address.
