Disputing a claim at a Tea address?

This page covers the city. A claim is argued about one property, so start with the free address check — it counts the recorded events around your address, not the city centroid. If you need the record itself in writing, that's the citable verification report — $29.

Type a street address — or just a ZIP code. We measure it against every hail event the National Weather Service recorded in the last 10 years and show you how many fall within 1, 3 and 10 miles — free, instantly, nothing stored. Rural property with no street address? Enter coordinates as 44.05, -107.31.

NWS records are point and path observations. The absence of a nearby report does NOT prove that no hail fell at this address — it means no observation was logged nearby. A report of nearby hail documents the event; it does not by itself prove damage to a specific structure.
