See call-center options ->NOAA's Storm Prediction Center has logged 14 separate hail days here since 2010 -- 0.8 a year over 17 years of record. They carry 22 reports in total: most hail days here are logged from a single spot. 7 of those 17 years produced none at all. One year dominates the record: 2012 alone produced 3 of the 14 days. The last five years have run hotter than the long-run rate: 6 days since 2022, against 0.7 a year before that.
Most hail here stays under 2 inches: only 1 of the 14 days on record passed it, 7%, the last on 2021-04-24. Those big days do not follow the county's usual calendar: most of them fall in April, not May. Golf-ball size is rarer still: 1.75 inches or more on 3 of the 14 days.
