HailScore™ pro tool
Check a date for hail
Enter an address and a date to see the nearest hail recorded within 1 mile that day, with its size, distance and source, and the hail recorded within 1 mile in the 45 days either side. Or pick a Colorado county or city to list its storm days, each linked to its storm page.
Exposure is not damage. These are records of hail exposure, not of damage: size is a class, not a measurement, and a hail record near a property is not a finding that the property was damaged.
What the address check reads
- NOAA Storm Events hail reports and the radar hail archive. Each radar record is cited by its radar station and time.
- Hail of 0.75″ or larger within 1 mile of the address, in the 45 calendar days either side of your date, counted in the property’s own time zone.
- These are the rules the date-of-loss status in our $9.95 storm history PDF uses, so for the same records the check and the PDF reach the same status.
- When radar recorded hail more than once on a day, the list shows that day’s largest reading, as the PDF does. The nearest-record line reads every radar reading on your date.
- Recent weeks can still be filling in. Radar records publish within days to weeks of a storm and NOAA Storm Events reports take months, so a “no hail” answer for a recent date is provisional, and a date newer than the radar archive is answered as too recent and not counted. Live MRMS radar is not part of this check; the free live-radar date check reads it.
County and city lists
Storm pages are county records: a verified page is filed under the county NOAA lists the reports in, and a preliminary radar page under the county the radar cells fell in. A city is checked against its county, and a city that spans counties is checked in each county we have on record for it.
A county gets a storm page only when the hail recorded there is large enough to qualify, so no storm page is not the same as no hail. For one property, run an address check.
Free checks and Team
Without an account you get 3 address checks a month. A free account includes 10 a month, shared with the dashboard’s date-of-loss tool. Team ($49 per month) has no monthly limit. County and city lists are free for everyone.
Questions
What does the address check search?
NOAA Storm Events hail reports and the radar hail archive, for hail of 0.75″ or larger within 1 mile of the address, in the 45 days either side of the date you pick. Those are the rules the date-of-loss status in the HailScore™ storm history PDF uses, so for the same records the check and the PDF reach the same status.
Why does a county have no storm page for my date?
A county gets a storm page only when the hail recorded there that day is large enough to qualify, and NOAA publishes its verified reports months after a storm. No storm page is not the same as no hail. To check one property, run an address check.
How many checks are free?
Without an account, 3 address checks a month. A free account includes 10 a month, shared with the dashboard's date-of-loss tool. Team has no monthly limit. County and city lists are free for everyone.
Does a hail record mean the roof was damaged?
No. These are records of hail exposure, not of damage: size is a class, not a measurement, and a hail record near a property is not a finding that the property was damaged. Only an on-roof inspection can determine damage.
