Hail History in Franklin — and What It Means for Your Roof Budget
NOAA Storm Events data shows 56 hail events in Franklin's county over the last 10 years, with hail up to 3.00″ (most recent on record: 2024-09-24). Stones that size punch through shingles rather than bruise them. At 56 events in a decade, Franklin roofs live on an insurance cycle: quotes here should price impact-resistant Class 4 shingles (10–20% more upfront, often offset by an insurer premium discount) and you should know your wind/hail deductible before the next storm, not after.
