DATA LIMITS

No address-level conclusion.

Storm Events records describe reported events, often with approximate locations. An event entry does not establish whether hail hit a specific home or vehicle. For current storms, use official weather warnings; for insurance or damage, use direct evidence and qualified assessment.
