Madison hail: the streets to knock first

A hail map shows where hail fell, not where to knock first. By 10 AM Central the morning after a storm, StormRoute ranks the streets in your service area by homes under the biggest radar hail. Here is a real Madison storm, the whole list, nothing blurred.

Ranked by homes under the biggest radar hail, with a boost when an NWS hail report was logged within 3 miles. The National Weather Service logged 3.00-inch hail under a mile from the #1 street. Home counts are approximate (mapped buildings along the street); hail sizes are radar estimates. A ranked street is a place to inspect, never a promise that a roof is damaged.
