These are reports, not a survey. Local Storm Reports are preliminary observations from NWS forecast offices, contributed by spotters, the public, mesonet stations and emergency managers. Coverage follows where people are, not where hail is: no report does NOT mean no hail. Sizes are frequently rounded to a coin size and some times are radar-estimated. Reports may be revised or withdrawn.

No report near you does not mean no hail near you. A large stone that falls in an empty field is reported by nobody. Use this to confirm what did happen, never to rule out what didn't.

Times and dates here are GMT, not local. GMT runs 4–8 hours ahead of the US, so an evening storm is recorded under the following date. If you are writing a date of loss on a claim form, check the local time — being one day off is a real reason a carrier can push back.
