Hail near Moore in the last 90 days
- 1.00 inLargest hail in 90 days (quarter size)
- 1Hail day near Moore
- 1SPC report
- September 12, 2026Most recent event
Around Moore, the NOAA Storm Prediction Center logged 1 hail report within 25 miles between September 12 and September 12, 2026, spread over 1 storm day. That day brought stones of 1″ or more, and 1 of the 1 Moore reports with coordinates fell within 10 miles of the city center. In a typical year Moore sees about 9 hail-producing storms, which is why insurers price separate wind-and-hail deductibles in this market.
Moore's storm-climate context
Moore sits squarely in Tornado Alley, giving it one of the most severe wind-uplift roofing environments in the United States. On May 20, 2013, an EF5 tornado struck the city with estimated wind speeds of 200-210 mph and a path 1.3 miles wide and 17 miles long, killing 24 people including 10 children at two elementary schools. Earlier, on May 3, 1999, an F5 tornado with record-setting winds devastated the same corridor. Hail accompanies many supercell events, stripping granules from asphalt shingles and cracking tile. The combination of tornado-force uplift, repeated hail impact, and Oklahoma's broad temperature swings demands impact-rated roofing systems and frequent post-storm inspections.
Moore, with 62,768 residents, is a suburb of Oklahoma City that has been rebuilt multiple times following catastrophic tornado strikes. Each major event generates a compressed burst of full-roof replacements across thousands of homes within a tight geographic area, creating cyclical high-demand periods for contractors. The city's predominantly single-family residential stock and proximity to Oklahoma City's contractor labor pool make it a well-served but consistently active roofing market between storm events.
How close the hail came
On September 12, 2026, a report fell just 9.9 miles from the Moore city center, the nearest of 1 (1.00″ at 1 NNW Oklahoma City). September 12, 2026 was the heaviest day around Moore, with 1 report and a top stone of 1.00″. Stones of 1″ or more came on 1 of the 1 Moore-area hail day.

The Moore tables above list preliminary Local Storm Reports from the NOAA Storm Prediction Center. Sizes are reported hailstone diameters; times are UTC. Reports can be added or corrected for about a day after each event. A quiet log does not mean no hail: small or unreported events happen. The closest report in this window landed 9.9 miles from Moore's center.

How severe was it? The NWS yardstick, applied to Moore's reports
The National Weather Service calls hail severe at 1″ (quarter size) and significant at 2″ (hen-egg size). Scoring Moore's 1 area report (filed in Oklahoma County) against that scale: 1 of the Moore reports met the severe 1″+ criterion — the size at which asphalt shingles start taking granule loss and bruising that shows up as leaks a season later. At these sizes, damage on a Moore roof is rarely visible from the ground, and homeowners policies typically cover it when it is documented promptly.

In the archive for Moore's county, 2023 was the busiest hail year (92 recorded events); the largest stone on record, 3.41″, fell in 2020. A Moore roof older than 2020 with no documented inspection has probably taken at least one unexamined hit.
In a market with repeat hail, impact-resistant Class 4 shingles often pay for themselves through insurer premium discounts — worth discussing with a Moore roofer if a recent event tips you into a replacement.

Source: U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey · data as of ACS 5-yearWhat to do if your roof was in the hail path
- Read the yard first; stay off the roof. Hail came as near as 9.9 miles to Moore (1 NNW Oklahoma City, September 12, 2026) in the last 90 days. Granule piles under a Moore downspout and dents on gutters, vents and screens are the signs to look for.
- Record the damage before anyone repairs it. For Moore the worst day is September 12, 2026 with 1 report and a top stone of 1.00 in. Dated photos, a coin beside a hailstone and this NOAA log tie your loss to one storm day.
- Expect door-knockers; do not rush. Near Moore, the single hail day reached 1 inch or more, and storm crews canvass within days of storms like that. In Moore, do not sign a contract or an Assignment of Benefits at the door; get a written scope from a roofer you picked.
- Watch two deadlines: the policy's and the insurer's. The latest storm day near Moore was 43 days ago. For a Moore claim, state law sets the insurer's clocks (see the Oklahoma page below); your own reporting window is in the policy.
- Bring the written scope to the adjuster. Hand over the scope in writing: an adjuster working a Moore claim then has the contractor's numbers. Step-by-step: the roof insurance claim guide.
