Local storm history
Why Stratford roofs take a beating
Texas leads the nation in hail and wind insurance claims. North Texas and the I-35 corridor sit in the hail belt, where spring supercells drop quarter- to softball-size hail; the Gulf coast faces named-storm wind and flooding; and tornadoes are a statewide spring threat. In Stratford and the surrounding Sherman County area, hail and damaging wind damage is most common during the spring severe season (and the summer–fall Gulf hurricane 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.

Texas storm claim rules
Reporting: Texas: report promptly. Many current Texas homeowners policies require you to report property damage within 1 year of the date of loss, some carriers apply that as a hard claim-filing deadline.
Deadline: General guidance: since the 2017 reforms (Insurance Code Ch. 542A), the window to sue on many weather claims is commonly around 2 years, and Texas's breach-of-contract limit is 4 years, but your policy's terms and required pre-suit notice control. Verify your specific deadline; do not rely on this figure.
Deductibles: Texas wind/hail policies frequently carry a separate percentage deductible (often 1%–2% of dwelling coverage) instead of a flat amount.
General information, not legal advice — verify with Texas Department of Insurance (tdi.texas.gov). See the Sherman County hub and Texas claim guidance.
