Georgetown hail storm history

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

Georgetown, located in Williamson County, sits in a transitional zone where Gulf moisture and drier continental air masses collide during severe weather season. This geographic positioning makes the area vulnerable to hail-producing thunderstorms, particularly during spring and early summer months. While the county experiences regular hail events, the frequency and intensity can vary significantly from year to year.

Type of damage

How urgent?

Georgetown's hail season peaks from April through June, with May typically showing the highest frequency of afternoon and evening convective storms. March and July also present secondary risk periods as weather patterns shift into and out of peak season. During these months, atmospheric conditions favor the development of supercell thunderstorms capable of producing large hail.
