Local storm history
Why Delano roofs take a beating
Minnesota's short but intense June–August severe season brings large hail, derecho-strength straight-line winds, and frequent tree-strike damage. Its claim deadline is among the tightest in the country. In Delano and the surrounding Wright County area, hail and damaging wind damage is most common during the spring and summer severe 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.
Storm climate summarized from public NOAA/NWS and insurance-industry reporting. This is general regional context, not a guarantee your specific property was affected — a free inspection confirms your damage.

Minnesota storm claim rules
Reporting: Minnesota: report promptly. Minnesota's standard fire-policy language (Minn. Stat. 65A.01) sets tight timelines, so don't delay notice.
Deadline: General guidance: under Minnesota's standard policy language, suit on a property claim generally must be brought within 2 years after the loss. This is shorter than many states, treat 2 years as a hard planning deadline and verify your policy.
Deductibles: Minnesota hail policies commonly use a separate wind/hail deductible, often a percentage (1%–2%) of dwelling coverage.
General information, not legal advice — verify with Minnesota Department of Commerce (mn.gov/commerce). See the Wright County hub and Minnesota claim guidance.
