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.

Gordon County · 17,632 Homes in County
Wind Report Description: A National Weather Service disaster survey team observed that a thunderstorm macroburst, or large area of estimated 80 to 100 mph straight line winds traversed much of the county, but hit the Calhoun area particularly hard. The thunderstorm macroburst entered the northwest part of the county northwest of Sugar Valley, and then traveled southeast through the county within an approximately 30 minute period of time. As this macroburst traveled through the Calhoun area, a small, two-segmented F0 to weak F1 tornado touched down, first just southwest of Calhoun and then again just east of Calhoun, inflicting some of the worst damage in the county. Damage across the county was widespread and extensive and as such the area was declared in a state of emergency by the governor. Literally thousands of trees, dozens of which were 2 feet or more in diameter, and hundreds of power lines and telephone poles were either blown down or brought down by large trees. Damage surveys and insurance claims indicated that well over 300 structures were either damaged or destroyed, including 269 homes and 48 commercial structures. Numerous cars were also either damaged or destroyed by down trees and debris, including six classic cars valued at $100,000. In one case, the damage to a large carpet dyeing facility was described as if a missile had hit the facility. Some of the more significant damaged structures and businesses included a large dyeing plant in Calhoun, two schools, one an elementary and the other a high school in Calhoun, a church, a grocery store, two barns at a large cow farm, and several businesses such as a pet store, a barbershop, a tanning salon, a dental office, insurance company office, and a computer store. In addition, 50,000 chickens were destroyed on a chicken farm when the structure collapsed during the storm. While miraculously, no injuries or deaths were reported amidst all of this damage, at least two instances were reported of trees crashing through homes and landing just inches away from individuals sleeping in their bed. At least 20,000 people, namely most of the residents of the county, were without power for at least one day, and several, especially in the Calhoun area, remained without power for nearly a week. Dozens of roads were also blocked by the downed trees, power lines, and other debris.

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.

These tornado spinups occurred on the south side of a southeastward moving thunderstorm macroburst which traveled from northwest to southeast across the county. The macroburst was associated with 80 to 100 mph damaging straight line winds. The areas affected by the weak tornadoes received some of the most significant damage within the county. Dozens of trees were twisted, uprooted, and shredded by the tornadic winds which caused extensive damage to homes and businesses alike.

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 hail, wind, and tornado reports does ZIP 30701 have on record?
Our records show 47 hail, 89 wind, and 8 tornado reports in and near ZIP 30701, compiled from NOAA SPC and NWS Local Storm Reports. The most recent was reported on August 21, 2026.
What is the largest hail ever reported in ZIP 30701?
The largest hail size in these storm-report records in and near ZIP 30701 is 2.75″. It was reported near N Oostanaula, GA on May 20, 2008.
A storm report showed up near my home in ZIP 30701 — does that mean my roof is damaged?
Not necessarily. A storm report only means hail, wind, or a tornado was observed nearby; it does not confirm damage at any specific address, and conditions change from block to block. Check an address-level hail report first, and if it looks significant, find a local pro that serves ZIP 30701 and ask about a Remote Hail Inspection before anyone climbs on the roof.
I am buying a home in ZIP 30701 — why should I look at its storm history?
Recent hail or wind can leave a roof or exterior with damage that is easy to miss during a walkthrough, and a recent roof replacement is sometimes an insurance job after a storm. Reviewing the storm history for a ZIP 30701 address before closing helps you ask informed questions about roof age, past repairs, and any prior claims.
I am selling a home in ZIP 30701 — how does this help me?
Knowing the storm history for your address lets you answer buyer questions with confidence, document repairs you have already made, and decide whether a pre-listing roof check is worthwhile. A clear hail history removes a common sticking point during negotiations.
How do I check hail history for a specific ZIP 30701 address?
Use the address search to pull a free address-level hail report for any property in ZIP 30701 — 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 in and around ZIP 30701, sourced from NOAA SPC and NWS Local Storm Reports. They show where hail, wind, or tornado activity was reported in ZIP 30701, 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.
