See call-center options ->NOAA's Storm Prediction Center has logged 20 separate hail days here since 2010 -- 1.2 a year over 17 years of record. They carry 32 reports in total: most hail days here are logged from a single spot. 6 of those 17 years produced none at all. One year dominates the record: 2011 alone produced 4 of the 20 days. The last five years track the long-run rate, with 5 days since 2022.
2 of the 20 days reached 2 inches or more -- 10%, or about one hail day in 10, the last on 2020-08-03. Those big days do not follow the county's usual calendar: most of them fall in April, not March. 5 of the 20 days reached golf-ball size, 1.75 inches or bigger.
