What happened
A line of severe supercells tracked across the northern Dallas–Fort Worth metroplex during the evening of June 11, 2026, dropping large hail from Plano and McKinney through northeast Dallas. Spotters reported hail up to baseball size with wind gusts near 70 mph, damaging roofs, siding, gutters, and vehicles across Collin, Dallas, and Denton counties. Within hours, out-of-town door-knocking crews began canvassing the hardest-hit neighborhoods — the annual post-storm pattern North Texas homeowners know well.

What to do in the first 48 hours
- 1Stay safe first, treat any downed lines as live, and if water is coming in near outlets or fixtures, shut off power to that area at the breaker.
- 2Document everything now: dated photos and video of the roof (from the ground), gutters, siding, and any interior water, before you touch anything.
- 3Mitigate further damage, get emergency tarping on any opening. Stopping further damage is required under your policy's duty to mitigate; keep receipts.
- 4Don't sign with a door-knocker on the spot. Out-of-town storm chasers canvass hard after events like this; you're never obligated to sign at your door.
- 5Get a free inspection from one vetted local pro, most hail damage isn't visible from the ground, and an inspection tells you whether you have a claim.
- 6File promptly and note your deadline, claim windows are often shorter than homeowners expect, and the clock usually starts on the storm date.

Dallas–Fort Worth storm FAQ
Was my Dallas–Fort Worth neighborhood hit by the June 11, 2026 storm?
The reported swath covered Collin, Dallas & Denton counties, including ZIPs like 75023, 75024, 75048, 75074. But hail is highly localized, one block can be totaled while the next is fine, and most bruising isn't visible from the ground. The only reliable way to know is a free professional inspection.
There are contractors knocking on my door, should I sign with them?
You're never obligated to. After a storm like this, out-of-town crews canvass the hardest-hit neighborhoods and pressure homeowners to sign on the spot, and many aren't local or properly licensed. Take a beat, get a free inspection from a vetted local pro, and understand your coverage before signing anything.
How long do I have to file a claim for this storm?
Your deadline is set by your policy and Texas law, and it's often shorter than people expect, the clock usually starts on the storm date, not when you notice the damage. Report promptly and check your policy's reporting and suit-limitation clauses. See our claim time limits guide for general Texas guidance.
My roof looks fine from the ground, do I still need it checked?
Yes. Hail bruises the shingle mat and knocks off protective granules in ways that rarely show from the ground; the damage still shortens your roof's life and can leak later. A free inspection documents whether the storm caused functional damage that rises to a claim.
