Hail Damage Risk for Your Home+
Hail reports describe hail by diameter, often comparing stone size to familiar objects like peas, quarters, golf balls, and softballs. Use this guide as a starting point for possible hail damage to your roof, siding, gutters, vents, windows, and exterior. Actual hail damage depends on hail hardness, density, wind speed, impact angle, roof age, shingle condition, roof pitch, roofing material, installation quality, and prior storm damage.
Pea
0.25″
Low
Usually too small to cause hail damage to most sound asphalt roofs, siding, or gutters.
Mothball
0.50″
Sub-Severe Watch
Below the NWS severe-hail threshold, but not always harmless. Repeated small hail can scuff surfaces, wear aging shingles, and loosen protective granules over time.
Penny
0.75″
Minor / Watch
Below the NWS severe-hail threshold, but roof hail damage is still possible on older, brittle, poorly installed, or previously damaged shingles. May also mark screens, vents, gutters, and soft metal.
Nickel
0.88″
Minor / Watch
Still below the severe-hail threshold, but large enough to leave visible marks on soft metal and add wear to older or hail-weakened roof shingles.
Quarter
1.00″
Watch
The NWS severe-hail threshold. Quarter-size hail can bruise shingles, dent soft metal, and create roof hail damage worth checking.
Half Dollar
1.25″
Watch
More likely to dent gutters, vents, flashing, and siding. Hail damage risk rises quickly on older roofs or hail-weakened shingles.
Ping Pong / Walnut
1.50″
Likely
Hail damage becomes more likely, including bruised shingles, granule loss, dented siding, and damaged roof vents.
Golf Ball
1.75″
Likely
Often causes roof hail damage, cracked shingles, dented gutters, damaged flashing, and siding impacts. A roof inspection is recommended.
Hen Egg
2.00″
Serious
Can crack or puncture shingles, expose mat, dent siding, and cause widespread hail damage across the roof and exterior.
Tennis Ball
2.50″
Serious
Can cause heavy roof hail damage, punctured siding, broken skylights, damaged vents, and widespread exterior damage.
Baseball
2.75″
Major
Major hail damage is likely, including severe roof impacts, damaged siding, broken windows, and possible major roof repairs.
Tea Cup / Large Apple
3.00″
Major
Can cause heavy hail damage across the roof, siding, gutters, windows, and exterior. Significant repairs are often needed.
Softball
4.00″
Extreme
Destructive hail damage. Can severely damage roofing materials, siding, windows, gutters, vents, vehicles, and exterior surfaces.
Grapefruit
4.50″
Extreme
Catastrophic hail damage risk for roofs, windows, vehicles, siding, gutters, and exterior surfaces.
Source: NOAA / National Weather Service hail size references are used for hail-size comparisons and the 1.00″ severe-hail threshold. Damage descriptions are general homeowner guidance, not official NOAA/NWS damage ratings. Sub-severe hail under 1.00″ is below the severe threshold, but that does not mean “no roof damage.” Penny- to nickel-size hail can still contribute to granule loss, cosmetic surface marks, and added wear, especially on older, brittle, poorly installed, or previously damaged roofs.

Wind Report Description: Thunderstorms developed in southwest Oklahoma throughout the afternoon and evening then moved northeastward across south-central and central Oklahoma through the evening, producing eight tornados, large hail, damaging straight-line winds, and flash flooding. Other isolated severe storms in northwest Oklahoma produced large hail. The first tornado, a brief F0, occurred on the Red River six miles southwest of Grandfield in Tillman County and did no reported damage. The storm then moved into Cotton County where it spawned its second, third, and fourth tornados. The second tornado was spotted four miles southwest of Devol and the third was just southeast of Devol. No damage was reported with either tornado and both were rated F0. The fourth tornado of the day began about 2.6 miles north and one-half miles west of Temple in Cotton County and moved east-northeast for two miles before dissipating. Along this path, several trees were uprooted or snapped off at ground level, power lines were downed, and a 200 foot radio tower was snapped, toppling the top half. Several metal sheds were also destroyed. This damage was rated F2. The fifth tornado, an F1, was a brief spin-up just east of the Cotton/Stephens County line, or about two miles west of Corum. The tornado touched down briefly in a field, damaging a metal shed and uprooting several trees. The sixth tornado, an F1, touched down about three miles west-northwest of downtown Comanche and tracked just north of due east, lifting about three miles northwest of Comanche. Several barns and sheds were damaged along this path, ranging from minor shingle damage to complete destruction of outbuildings. At a church about a mile north of Comanche, a steeple was toppled and driven into the church and an outbuilding collapsed at a nearby cemetery. Other damage included a school bus rolled 25 feet, large tree branches downed, and several power lines downed one to two miles northwest of Comanche. This damage was rated as F1 by ground survey teams. The storm continued across Stephens County and produced a seventh tornado, an F1, in Velma. Trees were twisted and the roof was blown off a water pump station. The eighth and final tornado occurred on the Murray/Garvin County line two and one-half miles northwest of Joy (or one and one-half miles southeast of Wynnewood). No damage was reported with this F0 tornado. Aside from the tornados, strong winds, large hail, and flash flooding were also reported. Straight line winds up to 80 mph were reported in Frederick in Tillman County. Windows were broken out of a house by baseball-size hail in Tipton, also in Tillman County. Severe straight-line wind damage occurred in and near Corum between 1715 CST and 1725 CST. The roof of a gift shop was partially removed and a beauty shop housed in a mobile home was completely destroyed. A tractor-semitrailer was overturned, a roof was lifted off a church, and a steeple was blown off. Several trees and signs and two barns were also destroyed. Also in Stephens County severe thunderstorm winds destroyed a barn in Faxon. In Jefferson County trees were snapped and sheet iron was blown off a barn in the northwest part of the county. In Cleveland County severe thunderstorm winds downed two large trees 12 miles east of Noble and snapped one foot tree branches eight miles east of Noble. In Carter County power lines were downed near Healdton and three barns and a wellhouse were destroyed five miles north of Lone Grove. Four houses north of Lone Grove also sustained slight damage to their roofs. In Love County severe winds downed power lines one mile south of Marietta. In Hughes County tree limbs were broken eight miles north of Holdenville by winds reported at 75 mph. In Bryan County four-foot-diameter trees were blown down in Hendrix and large trees were downed and a mobile home was blown onto a Jeep in Calera. Significant damage also occurred in Seminole County where strong straight line winds with the thunderstorm gust front cut a damage path through Wewoka. Twenty-one houses were damaged, mainly from trees falling on them, and 25 trees were downed across roads. A car was overturned by flash flood waters in Stephens County just east of Corum. None of the four passengers were hurt. The thunderstorms in northwest Oklahoma produced hail as large as golf balls 17 miles north of Chester in Major County and eight miles southwest of Alva in Woods County.

Tornado Damage Risk for Your Home+
After a tornado, the National Weather Service assigns an EF rating from EF0 to EF5 based on surveyed damage. The rating estimates wind speed from what the tornado damaged, so actual damage can vary by construction quality, roof age, garage doors, windows, trees, debris, and how close the home was to the tornado path.
EF0
65–85 mph
Light
Can peel shingles, damage gutters or siding, break tree limbs, and toss loose outdoor items.
EF1
86–110 mph
Moderate
Can strip roof covering, damage exterior doors, break windows, snap trees, and cause heavier siding or gutter damage.
EF2
111–135 mph
Serious
Can tear off large sections of roofing, break or uproot trees, destroy weaker structures, and cause major exterior damage.
EF3–EF5
136+ mph
Severe
Can remove roofs and walls, destroy large portions of homes, toss vehicles, and cause severe to total destruction near the path.
Source: NOAA / National Weather Service. EF ratings are assigned after a post-storm damage survey and are based on observed damage, not a direct measurement at every home.

Get a Remote Hail Inspection
Not sure if hail may have affected your home on April 17, 1995? Ask a local pro for a Remote Hail Inspection. They can review hail activity for your property and help you decide whether an in-person roof or exterior inspection makes sense.
How many storm reports were recorded on April 17, 1995?
Our records show 43 hail, 122 wind, and 20 tornado reports on April 17, 1995, compiled from NOAA SPC and NWS Local Storm Reports. The most recent was reported on April 17, 1995.
What was the largest hail reported on April 17, 1995?
The largest hail size in these storm-report records on April 17, 1995 is 2.75″, reported near Oklaunion, TX.
Some reports show UNK instead of a wind speed or tornado rating — what does that mean?
Wind reports come three ways: measured from an instrument, estimated from the damage observed, or UNK when no speed was recorded. Tornadoes show UNK until the National Weather Service finishes a damage survey and assigns an EF rating. UNK simply means that value was not available when the report was filed.
A report appeared near my home on April 17, 1995 — is my roof damaged?
Not necessarily. A storm report shows that hail, wind, or a tornado was observed nearby, not that any specific home was hit. To find out whether your property was affected, check an address-level hail report, and if it looks significant, ask a local pro about a Remote Hail Inspection before scheduling roof work.
I am buying or selling a home — how do these on April 17, 1995 reports help?
If a storm passed through, a roof or exterior may have damage that is hard to see, or a recent repair may trace back to it. Buyers can ask better questions before closing, and sellers can document the home condition up front — both starting from the property address rather than a whole region.
How do I check what happened at a specific address on April 17, 1995?
Use the address search to pull a free address-level hail report for any property — no phone number or email required. It shows recent hail activity for that address so you know whether a closer roof or exterior review makes sense.
Where does this storm report data come from, and what are its limits?
Storm reports on this page are public reports from storm events on April 17, 1995 across the United States, sourced from NOAA SPC and NWS Local Storm Reports. They show where hail, wind, or tornado activity was reported, but they do not confirm damage at any specific property. Report locations, sizes, and times may be approximate and can vary from what an individual home experienced. For property-specific hail history, use an address-level hail report or contact a participating local professional for a remote hail inspection. Pros inclusion is not an endorsement, and contacting a professional does not confirm damage at any property.
