How we counted
Official NWS reports are used through July 11, 2026. The latest months use preliminary Storm Prediction Center reports. A hail day is a date with at least one report in that county since 2015. The other count is days with hail 2 inches or larger. Town names link to the two city pages in that county with the most hail days. Bigger counties and more populated counties tend to have more reports, so this is not a measure of risk.
