THI Interpretation
Data: the table above reflects storm events reported for the Austin area over the trailing period shown.
THI Interpretation: repeated hail events at or above roughly one inch are a common trigger for insurance-eligible roof damage, so homes in affected areas may benefit from a professional roof inspection even without an obvious leak.
What this may mean for homeowners: if your property falls within an affected area and time window, it can be worth requesting a roof inspection and comparing quotes with a QuoteReady Roofing Brief before the next storm season.
Limitations: storm event reports are recorded at the county or station level, not the individual address, and do not confirm damage to any specific roof. This page currently shows placeholder SAMPLE data; no live feed is connected yet.
Methodology
Planned source: NOAA Storm Events Database, filtered to Travis County. Update cadence: monthly. If a scheduled update fails, the prior valid values will be preserved and marked stale with the last successful update date, rather than showing zero or blank.
