See call-center options ->NOAA's Storm Prediction Center has logged 15 separate hail days here since 2010 -- 0.9 a year over 17 years of record. Those days carry 41 separate reports between them, two or three on a typical one. 6 of those 17 years produced none at all. One year dominates the record: 2023 alone produced 3 of the 15 days. The last five years have run hotter than the long-run rate: 8 days since 2022, against 0.6 a year before that.
2 of the 15 days reached 2 inches or more -- 13%, or about one hail day in 8, the last on 2019-07-19. Those big days do not follow the county's usual calendar: most of them fall in June, not May. 6 of the 15 days reached golf-ball size, 1.75 inches or bigger.
