See call-center options ->NOAA's Storm Prediction Center has logged 17 separate hail days here since 2010 -- 1.0 a year over 17 years of record. Those days carry 43 separate reports between them, two or three on a typical one. 6 of those 17 years produced none at all. The busiest single year was 2012, with 3 hail days. The last five years have been quieter than the long run: 3 days since 2022, against 1.2 a year before that.
3 of the 17 days reached 2 inches or more -- 18%, or about one hail day in 6, the last on 2023-06-15. Those big days do not follow the county's usual calendar: most of them fall in June, not May. 6 of the 17 days reached golf-ball size, 1.75 inches or bigger.
