NOAA Hail Reports Map

Two layers of real hail data: recent SPC reports (last 90 days) sized by hail diameter, and city frequency since 2017 showing where hail strikes most often. Data from NOAA Storm Prediction Center — updated every 6 hours.

About this data: Recent reports (orange/red circles) come from NOAA SPC Local Storm Reports — preliminary observations from trained spotters and official stations, filed the same day or next day. frequency since 2017 (blue circles) comes from the NOAA Storm Events archive, aggregated by county and matched to the nearest covered city within 25 miles. A city with a large blue circle sees frequent hail; the size is proportional to the event count since 2017. No circle for a city does not mean no hail — the archive only captures events that reached the reporting threshold. Data is refreshed every 6 hours.

What to do after a hail event

If your city shows recent hail activity, a prompt inspection matters — hail bruising on shingles is often invisible from the ground but creates leak paths over time. Check the insurance claim guide for the exact steps, or find a local roofing contractor for a free storm inspection. If you want to know whether your specific address was in the hail path, use the hail check tool.
