Nevada ranks only counties with 30 or more reports, and Washoe County is not among them, so no density rank is shown.
If a storm does come through, take dated photos of the roof first. Whoever you hire, Specialty Roof Repairs included, should put the inspection findings in writing.
The strongest logged thunderstorm gust is 86 mph.
Reports cluster in August (36 percent of the total); April through July carry 64 percent. In 8 months of the year, hail is close to absent in the record.
