Largest hail storms near Norfolk

Apr 9, 2011 · 3.00 in (tea cup) · Norfolk (0 mi from Norfolk)

National Weather Service description (English): The second supercell thunderstorm that moved across Madison county during the evening produced hail up to baseball-size in the Norfolk area. The hail caused considerable vehicle damage in town along with roof and siding damage.

Jun 3, 2014 · 2.75 in (baseball) · Norfolk (0 mi from Norfolk)

Jun 30, 2026 · 2.00 in (hen egg) · Hoskins (9 mi from Norfolk)

National Weather Service description (English): Public report of hail estimated up to 2.00 inches in diameter in rural Hoskins. Time and location estimated by radar.

Jun 22, 2010 · 1.75 in (golf ball) · Battle Creek (10 mi from Norfolk)

National Weather Service description (English): Very little/no rain was falling when the hail began.

Apr 14, 2012 · 1.75 in (golf ball) · Norfolk Simpson Airport (7 mi from Norfolk)

National Weather Service description (English): Large amounts of hail up to golf ball-size fell for at least 10 minutes from southwest of Norfolk into town. The hail accumulated at least several inches and in some cases much more and was accompanied by torrential rain and 40 to 50 mph winds. This not only caused tree, building and vehicle damage but also flash flooding as hail clogged storm drainage systems. The larger hail stones generally fell west through south of town, but in town, drifts of the massive amounts of smaller hail required snow removal equipment to clear some streets. Some of the hail drifts lasted into evening.

Insurers ask for the date of loss. The dates on this page are when hail was reported near Norfolk; hail can hit one street and miss the next, so a report is not proof of damage at your address. A licensed roofer or your insurance adjuster can inspect the roof. Many policies set a time limit for filing a claim — check yours.
