About this data

These counts come from the NOAA Storm Prediction Center's severe weather database, which compiles the hail reports National Weather Service offices enter in Storm Data. We count reports of hail 1 inch or larger, the NWS severe threshold since January 5, 2010.

Each report is the largest hail size recorded at a place and time, often estimated by comparing it to a familiar object, and it says nothing about damage to any roof.

Hail can go unreported where few people live, so a county with no reports may still have had hail.

The NOAA data are in the public domain and not subject to copyright. The counts and charts are our own processing of the SPC files updated April 23, 2026, and NOAA does not endorse this site.

How we built this page: we downloaded the yearly hail files for 2016–2025 from the NOAA Storm Prediction Center once, kept reports of 1 inch and larger (the National Weather Service severe-hail size since 2010), and counted them by state, county (Census 2020 county names), month and year. Nothing on this page updates by itself.
