See call-center options ->NOAA's Storm Prediction Center has logged 13 separate hail days here since 2010 -- 0.8 a year over 17 years of record. Those days carry 30 separate reports between them, two or three on a typical one. 10 of those 17 years produced none at all. One year dominates the record: 2011 alone produced 5 of the 13 days. The last five years have been quieter than the long run: 2 days since 2022, against 0.9 a year before that.
3 of the 13 days reached 2 inches or more -- 23%, or about one hail day in 4, the last on 2015-04-08. Those big days do not follow the county's usual calendar: most of them fall in February, not April. 5 of the 13 days reached golf-ball size, 1.75 inches or bigger.
