Hail up to 2 inches was reported across parts of Butler and Sedgwick counties on August 7. If nobody has checked your roof since, here is what was reported and what to do next.
The largest hail reported within 10 miles of each town on August 7, 2026, according to public storm reports compiled by StormerSite. Hail size can vary a lot from one street to the next, so treat this as a guide, not a verdict on your roof.
Hail around 1 inch and larger can bruise asphalt shingles and knock off the granules that protect them, and 2-inch hail can crack shingles outright. That damage is usually invisible from the ground, and a bruised shingle can take months to start leaking.
Most homeowners policies set a deadline for reporting storm damage, counted from the date of the storm. The window varies by insurer and policy, so check your policy or ask your agent. What matters most is getting the damage documented before more time passes or another storm muddies the picture.
