See call-center options ->NOAA's Storm Prediction Center has logged 26 separate hail days here since 2010 -- 1.5 a year over 17 years of record. Those days carry 65 separate reports between them, two or three on a typical one. 5 of those 17 years produced none at all. The busiest single year was 2021, with 5 hail days. The last five years have been quieter than the long run: 5 days since 2022, against 1.8 a year before that.
Most hail here stays under 2 inches: only 1 of the 26 days on record passed it, 4%, the last on 2017-06-26. Those big days do not follow the county's usual calendar: most of them fall in June, not May. Golf-ball size is rarer still: 1.75 inches or more on 2 of the 26 days.
