When hail last hit Minneapolis
A later storm may not be in NOAA’s records yet and one roof can carry hits from more than one storm.
NOAA posts storm data about 75 days after each month ends, per its bulk data page. A storm from last week will not show yet. The biggest stone here was 2.0 inches on September 21, 2025. Stones that size can crack shingles.

Signs of hail on your roof
- Dents or dark spots on shingles where the grit got knocked off. Gutters often fill with that grit after a storm.
- Dings in metal vents, flashing, gutters and downspouts. They are easy to see from the ground and help show hail hit the roof.
- Cracked or split shingles or tabs that lifted in the wind that came with the storm.
- A new ceiling stain or wet attic wood. That is a leak, so open the leak page now.
How the claim works
Call us first and a roofer documents the hail damage for your claim. Take photos and video of the damage before anything is moved, then file as soon as you can.
In Minnesota, roofers answer to the Department of Labor and Industry (DLI). Ask for the residential roofer license (number starts RR) and the $15,000 bond. Minnesota law bars a roofer from offering to pay your deductible or paying you for an inspection or a claim (Minn. Stat. 325E.66).
Never sign the insurance check over to a roofer, the FTC warns.

Cost vs Value 2025 puts a full new asphalt roof at about $31,900 for its Minneapolis figure. Use that as a yardstick, since your roof’s size changes the price.
