What to check after thunderstorm wind
- Shingles in the yard or lifted tabs along the ridge and edges
- Creased shingles that no longer lie flat
- Loose or missing ridge caps
- Fence panels and tree limbs down nearby, a sign the gusts reached your street
A free inspection settles it either way: a look at every slope and the soft metals, photographs of anything the storm left, and a plain answer about whether it is worth a claim. Signature Roofing does that in Kansas City, call +1 816-727-3349.
Questions Kansas City homeowners ask
- When was the last hail storm in Kansas City?
August 18, 2026. Weather radar put hail of 2 inches or larger over Kansas City, covering about 6% of it, on August 18, and 1.75 inch hail was reported there. Hail that size (hen egg) can punch through older shingles and crack decking under them.
- How many storms has Kansas City had since 2023?
58 storm days reached the National Weather Service's severe line in or within a mile of Kansas City: 47 with thunderstorm wind, 12 with hail, 6 with tornado, 6 with high wind, 1 with heavy snow. Each one is listed on this page with its date and what was reported.
- Does a storm in Kansas City mean my roof is damaged?
No. It means the storm reached your area at a strength that can mark a roof, which is why insurers and roofers both look after one. Hail of an inch or more and gusts of 58 mph or more are the sizes that can leave damage you cannot see from the yard, so the next step is a look at the roof, not a decision.
- How do you know a storm reached my street?
From the National Weather Service: its storm reports (hail sizes and wind speeds called in by trained spotters, emergency managers and weather stations), its warnings and damage surveys, and the radar hail estimates it publishes. The street check on this page reads the same records for one address.
The next step after a storm like this is a look at the roof.
Every slope, the soft metals, the attic, with photographs. Free in Kansas City, and a plain answer on whether there is anything worth a claim.
The bigger picture for Kansas City Metro
The National Insurance Crime Bureau reviewed hail loss claims filed from 2016 through 2018 and ranked Missouri fourth in the nation with 153,403 of them and Kansas fifth with 146,206, so both sides of the Kansas City metro sit in the country's top five hail-claim states. Source.
The Missouri Department of Commerce and Insurance notes that most standard homeowners policies cover damage caused by wind and hail, but that a policy deductible can change at renewal and there can be separate deductibles for different types of loss. Source.
