After the hail
Affected towns
The alert names location, track and class. Tiles tend to break from about 1.2 in (30 mm), which matches hail resistance class HW 3. Roof windows, skylights and gutters suffer sooner.
Roofing & gutters
After a hailstorm, it is hard to tell which roofs were hit.

Honest limits
- Germany without hail size The German Weather Service hail flag says “hail possible” or “large hail possible”, but gives no millimetres.
- Switzerland from April to September Swiss hail radar: 1 April to 30 September. Outside this season, this source provides no current hail estimates. Germany (DWD) and the US radar feed are not affected.
- Arrival hint without guarantee It only appears when the track is heading for your base and is stable enough. Cells turn, collapse or form anew.
- No damage confirmation on site Radar is an indication, not proof. Only an inspection on site shows whether something is damaged.
- Coverage Germany, Switzerland with border areas and the contiguous United States. Alerts start at class 2, from 0.8 in (20 mm).
