See call-center options ->NOAA's Storm Prediction Center has logged 34 separate hail days here since 2010 -- 2.0 a year over 17 years of record. Those days carry 82 separate reports between them, two or three on a typical one. Exactly one year since 2010 passed with no reported hail day at all. The busiest single year was 2011, with 5 hail days. The last five years track the long-run rate, with 10 days since 2022.
Roof-killing hail is routine here: 9 of the 34 days reached 2 inches or more, 26% of them, the last on 2026-05-10. Those big days do not follow the county's usual calendar: most of them fall in May, not April. More than half of every hail day on record here -- 20 of 34 -- reached golf-ball size, 1.75 inches or bigger.
