Bellevue hail storm history
Sarpy County·NOAA NCEI Storm Events Database·~75-day publication lag
Bellevue, located in Sarpy County, sits within the eastern Nebraska corridor where Gulf moisture and the dryline interact most aggressively with the jet stream. This geographic position makes the Omaha-Lincoln region one of the highest-frequency large-hail zones in the United States, exposing Bellevue residents to recurring hail risk across multiple seasons.
Check if your roof was damaged by recent hail
Hail events in Bellevue peak during May and June, when supercell thunderstorms develop most frequently across the region. Secondary activity occurs in April and July. The collision of warm, moist air from the south with dry air aloft creates conditions favorable for strong updrafts and large hail production during these months.
