Severe Weather
Hail and Severe Storms Are Common in Randall County
The Texas Panhandle sits in one of the most active hail and severe thunderstorm corridors in the U.S., and Randall County homeowners should be prepared.
Panhandle thunderstorms can bring large hail, strong straight-line winds, and tornadoes. Hail is a major concern here. It can total a vehicle or destroy a roof in minutes.
If you buy a home in the Canyon area, talk to your insurance agent about hail and wind coverage. Ask about your deductible. Some policies have a separate, higher deductible just for wind and hail damage.
