See call-center options ->NOAA's Storm Prediction Center has logged 43 separate hail days here since 2010 -- 2.5 a year over 17 years of record. Those days carry 91 separate reports between them, two or three on a typical one. 2 of those 17 years produced none at all. The busiest single year was 2020, with 5 hail days. The last five years have been quieter than the long run: 8 days since 2022, against 2.9 a year before that.
10 of the 43 days reached 2 inches or more -- 23%, or about one hail day in 4, the last on 2025-06-20. Those big days do not follow the county's usual calendar: most of them fall in June, not July. 19 of the 43 days reached golf-ball size, 1.75 inches or bigger.
