Local storm history
Why Rupert roofs take a beating
The Mountain West's high elevation and intense afternoon convection make it one of the most hail-prone regions in North America — the Front Range "Hail Alley" is the classic example — while monsoon and downslope winds drive microburst and wind damage across the Southwest and northern Rockies. In Rupert and the surrounding Minidoka County area, hail and damaging wind damage is most common during the late-spring through summer convective season. Because storm damage is highly localized, one side of a ZIP can be hit hard while the next street is untouched — a free inspection is the only way to know.
