See call-center options ->NOAA's Storm Prediction Center has logged 35 separate hail days here since 2010 -- 2.1 a year over 17 years of record. Those days carry 65 separate reports between them, two or three on a typical one. 2 of those 17 years produced none at all. The busiest single year was 2022, with 4 hail days. The last five years track the long-run rate, with 13 days since 2022.
4 of the 35 days reached 2 inches or more -- 11%, or about one hail day in 9, the last on 2023-06-13. Those big days do not follow the county's usual calendar: most of them fall in March, not April. Golf-ball size is rarer still: 1.75 inches or more on 8 of the 35 days.
