What happened
Back-to-back hail storms struck the Denver metro: on August 13, 1.75-inch hail was recorded at Arapahoe Park with 1.5-inch hail near Foxfield; on August 14, quarter-size (1.00-inch) hail was confirmed in Englewood. Warned areas included Englewood, Centennial, Lakewood, Littleton, Parker, Lone Tree, Greenwood Village, Aurora, and portions of Douglas and Elbert counties.
Quarter-size hail is the threshold where asphalt shingle damage becomes likely. Hail damage often is not visible from the ground — bruising, granule loss, and soft spots hide until a storm leaks. Back-to-back events compound the damage.
What to do now
- Document conditions now — photos of gutters, AC fins, fascia, and any granules at downspouts.
- Check ground-level signs — dents in soft metal are the clearest indicator hail was large enough to matter.
- Stay off the roof — never risk a fall; have an insured professional inspect it.
- Get an inspection before you call your insurer so you know whether you actually have damage.
- Know your deductible — Colorado wind/hail deductibles can be percentage-based and higher than expected.
