Why we publish this. Homeowners call us after a storm asking two questions: was my neighborhood actually hit, and is it too late to file? This page answers both. It is built from the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information Storm Events Database (the official record of National Weather Service storm reports) and NOAA daily temperature observations, filtered to the cities we serve. New reports are added automatically every week.

How to read the tablesEach hail row is one storm day. Wind rows show the peak gust reported (58 mph is the NWS severe threshold; rows at 75 mph or more are bold) and any tornado with its rating and path length. The size is the largest hail reported that day within about 5 to 7 miles of the city center, and the report point is the NWS locality name for that report, which is sometimes a small community inside or beside the city (Navo, Foot, Carney and Lolaville are all inside Frisco or Prosper, for example). Rows in bold are 2 inches or larger, which is at or beyond what even a Class 4 impact-resistant shingle is tested for. Most Texas homeowner policies require a hail claim within one year of the storm date, some allow two; if your roof has not been inspected since the most recent date for your city, the window may still be open.

Jan 30, 2023 – Feb 2, 2023January-February 2023 ice storm24 °F24 °F3Three days of freezing rain and sleet, lows of 24 F, highs stuck in the 20s from Jan 30 to Feb 1. Ice load on trees and roofs, roof and gutter damage, then leaks when it thawed.

Feb 3, 2022 – Feb 5, 2022February 2022 ice storm17 °F17 °F0Sleet and freezing rain, lows in the upper teens; highs recovered above freezing each afternoon. The kind of freeze that gets hose bibs, exposed lines, and poorly insulated attic runs.
