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 Damage Risk for Your Home +

Storm reports list thunderstorm wind gusts in mph. The NWS marks storms as severe at 58+ mph, but wind damage to your home depends on roof age, shingle condition, installation, exposure, nearby trees, and prior hail or wind damage.

Below Severe
Under 58 mph
Minor

Usually little damage to a sound roof, but loose shingles, flashing, or debris may shift.

Severe
58–74 mph
Watch

Can loosen shingles, lift flashing, break limbs, and damage gutters, siding, fences, or trim.

Damaging
75–90 mph
Serious

Can peel shingles, damage vents, tear siding, rip gutters, and expose weak roof areas.

Extreme
90+ mph
Major

Can cause major roof covering loss, tree damage, broken windows, and structural damage.

Source: NOAA / National Weather Service storm reports. Gusts may be measured or estimated; actual wind damage varies by roof condition, exposure, and prior hail or wind damage.

Clay County · 4,201 Homes in County
Tornado Report Description: This tornado initially touched down in Cotton County, 4.8 miles south-southwest of Randlett, Oklahoma (see Oklahoma tornado entry beginning at 1923 CST). The tornado crossed the Red River into Clay County 3.8 miles north of Thornberry. The tornado dissipated about a mile east of the river. This tornado caused some damage in Oklahoma but no damage was reported in Texas.

Cotton County · 2,249 Homes in County
Tornado Report Description: A tornado that was observed by several storm chasers and spotters touched down near Randlett on the evening on April 24,2006. Video showed that the tornado began as a dust whirl on the ground with no condensation funnel for the first few minutes. A condensation funnel eventually developed from cloud base to the ground and was described as a fat stove-pipe at times. This tornado crossed the Red River into Clay County Texas at 1938 CST (see west north Texas tornado entry) before dissipating. The tornado caused some damage in Oklahoma. A meteorologist at Sheppard Air Force Base in Wichita Falls, Texas did a survey of the damage. Numerous hardwood, mainly elm, trees were snapped or uprooted, with large limbs also downed. One large elm tree, about 2.5 foot in diameter, was snapped about 4 feet above the ground. One large tree was partially debarked. Power poles were also snapped. A few calves were also missing.

Canadian County · 50,071 Homes in County
Tornado Report Description: This unusual anti-cyclonic tornado touched down 5.1 miles southwest of El Reno while another cyclonic tornado (see tornado entry that began at 1823 CST) was still moving across part of the area west of El Reno. These two tornadoes were observed, by numerous storm chasers and 3 media helicopters, moving across the area simultaneously for several minutes before the initial tornado dissipated while the anti-cyclonic tornado continued. The anti-cyclonic tornado moved quickly to the east-southeast. The most significant tornado damage that occurred on April 24 was by the second tornado when it moved through the El Reno Regional Airport (KRQO) which is located southwest of town. A storm survey of the airport showed that the damage was confined to two large hanger buildings, one of which was brand new, that were constructed mainly from tin, sheet metal panel walls on rigid metal frame. The damage was confined to only the metal panel walls and metal seam roof, with no observed damage to the rigid metal frame. Some interior "walls" were damaged, but these were not part of the rigid load-bearing construction, and hanging from the rigid frame and not anchored to the foundation. Ten aircraft, some of which were vintage planes, were also damaged inside the hangars, with 5 planes declared a complete loss. In addition to the numerous videos, there was also some evidence of anti-cyclonic swirls in sprayed aircraft oil. The two structures were estimated at about $1 million. The damage to the airplanes were estimated from $35,000-$225,000 each for an estimated total loss of $500,000 to aircraft at the airport. The total damage to the El Reno Regional Airport was approximately $1.5 million.

Canadian County · 50,071 Homes in County
Tornado Report Description: A cyclonic tornado touched down 5.5 miles west of El Reno mainly moving east-northeast on the evening of April 24. This tornado and an anti-cyclonic tornado that began a few minutes later (see tornado entry that began at 1830 CST) were on the ground simultaneously for several minutes. The first tornado traveled slowly, and mainly through open farm land. However, damage was found, during a storm survey, to a small grove of trees just southwest of the intersection of Elm Road and Chiles Road that occurred around 1830 CST. This was the only damage found, other than a possible path through the vegetation (grass/wheat) just to the west of the trees about 1/2 mile west of the road. A local farmer stated that the tornado also passed through some freshly dug up soil, just south of the Brad Baker household, just south of Interstate 40. This caused a slight jog to the south in the path before the tornado finally dissipated. Storm chasers stated that the main condensation funnel appeared to dissipate around 1832 CST, but a "dental floss" rope was seen as late as 1838 CST.

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.

Frequently asked questions

for homeowners, buyers & sellers
How many storm reports were recorded on April 24, 2006?

Our records show 183 hail, 44 wind, and 4 tornado reports on April 24, 2006, compiled from NOAA SPC and NWS Local Storm Reports. The most recent was reported on April 24, 2006.

What was the largest hail reported on April 24, 2006?

The largest hail size in these storm-report records on April 24, 2006 is 4.25″, reported near Harrison, AR.

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 24, 2006 — 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 24, 2006 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 24, 2006?

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 24, 2006 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.
