Hail Damage Blog

Well, it looks like the price of hail damage repair just went up!

There are so many hail damage reports with this round that I am going to post the damage confirmations as I find them in regional groups. I can tell you this for sure, there is a lot more damage out there than is on the reports so don't be afraid to think outside the box and do a little bit of old school storm chasing. You know, the kind where you plot the storm tracks on your map and then follow it looking for damage. There is going to be some hail damage out there that doesn't get found by more than a few people, try to be one of them.

These hail damage report confirmations are from North Alabama. I'm sure there are a lot more from this area but my desktop is getting full and I need to get some of these posted so, here goes.

Cullman, Alabama



Gadsden, Alabama



Madison, Alabama



Northern Alabama



I included that last one just for the hell of it. Like I said, I know there is a lot more hail damage that will be confirmed from this area but this is what I've got for the moment. I've got a whole string of hail damage report confirmations in Tennessee that I will be getting posted tonight so be sure to check back in later.

Sorry it has taken me so long to get back to you guys with a hail damage report update but I've been searching high and low for some decent information and, unfortunately, I'm not really coming up with much.

The information I've been finding make me stick by my assessment of the Omaha, Nebraska hail damage reports that I wrote Monday night. In short, a lot of small stuff with a few larger stones scattered around but nothing too serious. If you live close you might be able to pick up a little bit but I don't think there is going to be much out of that one.

I have nt been able to come up with any kind of reasonable confirmation to the Stillwater, Oklahoma hail report so, at this time I have to call it a bust unless something else comes up. Of course, I know all you hail chasers are only worried about what is happening right now, aren't you? You probably already forgot about those two reports because you're so concentrated on Texas right this minute.

Well, I am too. As soon as I have some good information for you on the Texas or Lousianna hail damage reports I'll be posting again.

At this point I have only been able to partially confirm some of the Alabama hail reports so, as usual, I'm only going to give you the good stuff without the guessing but I do have a bonus guess for you that I'll throw in at the end after the sure stuff. Let's get started on this batch of hail reports and confirmations.

Anniston, Alabama Hail Reports (Partially Confirmed)

I don't have a direct confirmation of the Anniston, AL hail report but I do have confirmations from around it. First I found a picture of some hail stones form Weaver, Alabama which is a few miles north west of Anniston. The hail stones aren't very big but they look like they might be quarter to half dollar size. This next picture comes from Goldsprings, AL which is where the original Anniston, AL hail report came out of. These stones were easily half dollar to golf ball before they melted down.

Fayetteville, Georgia Hail Damage Confirmation

Instead of making a new post, I just decided to update this on. This video shows some pretty conclusive confirmation of hail damage in Fayetteville, GA. Check it out.

*************************** END OF UPDATE ******************************

OK, those are the confirmations of the Alabama hail reports that I have been able to get so far. Now for your bonus. This is one of those things that is a little hard to explain unless you have been out there chasing those beautiful sleeper storms that didn't make the report.

Check out this video of baseball hail in Sharpsburg, Georgia.

Now check out this video of hail falling in Fayetteville, Georgia.

The Sharpsburg hail is huge and it's out in the country so it's not worth running on and the Fayetteville hail looks kind of small to me. So these are a waste of time to fool with, just skip 'em and move on right?

Pull out your map and look at exactly where these two towns are. Sitting almost directly between these two towns is Peachtree City, Georgia. Now that would be a town worth fooling with, right. I'm not making any kind of promises. I'm just saying, if you decide to load up the PDR tools and hit the road in search of some work, you might want to swing through that area. I've found sleeper storms on a whole lot less information that that.

That's it for now but I'll keep working it and wouldn't be surprised if I end up making another post tonight or in the morning. I will if I can confirm any more hail damage reports.
