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 for Savage, MT
Richland County · 3,505 Homes in County
Wind Report Description: Some light damage consisting of tree branches down and fence damage was noted south of Lambert. More significant damage was found about 9 miles southeast of Lambert on Rd. 115. At this location, numerous trees were uprooted or snapped, and there was damage to homes and vehicles. Residents reported hail up to 2.5 inches breaking windows in homes.||Major to minor crop damage was seen over a large area from 9 southeast of Lambert to Savage. An irrigation system was destroyed just north of Savage. There was some damage to structures in and near the town of Savage, with the most significant structural damage surveyed occurring on a ranch 6 miles west-northwest of Savage. At this location, an attached garage was destroyed with the garage door torn off and a wall blown out. The garage door and wall, which were blown 200 feet down wind of the house. Also, this ranch had a grain bin torn off its foundation and blown a half mile down wind, where it was found in a mining pit.||About 4 miles of power poles were blown down or snapped along Rd. 107 west of Lambert. Poles on the south side of the road were blown down, while those on the north side were not, even though those on the south side were thicker poles. The poles that were blown down were a little taller than those that did not get blown down, and had cross members near the top.||In the town of Savage, numerous trees were uprooted or snapped. The cemetery at Savage had the most trees blown down.||Crop damage occurred as far south as County Road 107, with hail also being reported. However, significant structural and tree damage was reported by the public (not surveyed) further south, without hail also being reported. A dairy 2.4 miles west-southwest of Savage had considerable damage, including the roof. All of the debris from the dairy was blown down wind towards the south.||The perception of the residents of Savage was that they experienced a tornado. This is a reasonable perception as the residents first received a tornado warning form the NWS, then lost power, and then experienced powerful damaging winds. However, all of the damage surveyed flowed primarily in one direction, towards the south. Also, the damage extended over a wide area exceeding 4 miles in width, and tornadoes are much more localized. In fact, this wide area of damage is more significant than that produced by most tornadoes.||As all of the observed damage implied flow from the north, it was concluded that the damage was caused by a strong macroburst. A macroburst is defined as a strong downdraft from a thunderstorm affecting a path of greater than 2.5 miles. A macroburst forms when hail and rain aloft fall and entrain air, forming a downdraft. As large hail has a high fall speed, strong downdrafts can develop in storms with a lot of large hail (which this storm had). When the downdraft impacts the ground, the flow spreads out horizontally, creating strong straight line winds which radiate out from the center of the downdraft along a gust front. The rotation of the storm can add to the downdraft effect, creating a large area of uniform wind direction. Radar indications did not show large hail approximately south of County Road 107, which agrees with surveyed crop damage and public reports. However, significant damage still occurred for at least several miles south of Rd. 107. It is not unusual for gust fronts to travel considerable distances away from the storms which produce them, which evidently happened in this case.||The maximum wind speeds with this event are estimated from the resulting damage. Uprooted and snapped hardwood trees, building damage, and broken power poles are all consistent with winds above 95 mph over a wide area, with winds up to about 110 mph for the most significant damage.||The survey team did not find any damage from a tornado at any location, though one was conclusively observed and photographed. This is not surprising as the time the tornado was observed, when combined with radar indications of a possible tornado, place the tornado in an empty area just southwest of Fox Lake near Lambert. A tornado in this location would not have left behind any damage for the survey team to catalog.

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.

Check an address-level hail report first, and if it looks significant, find a local pro that serves Savage and ask about a Remote Hail Inspection before anyone climbs on the roof.

I am buying a home in Savage — 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 Savage address before closing helps you ask informed questions about roof age, past repairs, and any prior claims.

I am selling a home in Savage — 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 Savage address?

Use the address search to pull a free address-level hail report for any property in Savage — 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 across Savage, MT, sourced from NOAA SPC and NWS Local Storm Reports. They show where hail, wind, or tornado activity was reported in Savage, 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.
