Fishers hail storm history

Hamilton County·NOAA NCEI Storm Events Database·~75-day publication lag

Fishers is located in Hamilton County, Indiana, a region positioned at the intersection of storm tracks from both the Ohio Valley and the Great Plains. This geographic location makes the area susceptible to spring hail events as storm systems track northeast from the Plains and squall lines develop from broader Midwest weather patterns. Homeowners in Fishers experience hail strikes more frequently than many other parts of Indiana.

Type of damage

How urgent?

Hail in Fishers follows a pronounced spring pattern, with April, May, and June accounting for the majority of events. Secondary activity occurs in March and July as transitional weather systems move through central Indiana. Spring storms that produce hail in this region typically develop along frontal boundaries and organized convective lines that align with the area's geographic position.
