They carry 94 reports in total: most hail days here are logged from a single spot. 2 of those 17 years produced none at all. The busiest single year was 2017, with 7 hail days. The last five years track the long-run rate, with 16 days since 2022.
Most hail here stays under 2 inches: only 5 of the 56 days on record passed it, 9%, the last on 2020-08-31. Those big days do not follow the county's usual calendar: most of them fall in March, not May. Golf-ball size is rarer still: 1.75 inches or more on 12 of the 56 days.
