Hail across Illinois
Illinois recorded 2,210 hail events of one inch or larger over the last 10 years, in 102 of its counties, along with 6,859 damaging wind events and 875 tornadoes.
Where it falls is uneven. The counties that took the most:
| County | Hail events | Largest |
|---|---|---|
| Cook County | 147 | 2.75" |
| Sangamon County | 78 | 3.25" |
| Peoria County | 66 | 2.50" |
| Kane County | 63 | 2.50" |
| Fulton County | 59 | 4.00" |
| Will County | 58 | 1.75" |
Roof claims are what most homeowners end up filing, and policies differ most in how they pay for a roof — replacement cost or depreciated value — and in whether a separate, larger wind and hail deductible applies.
