Storm Date Finder

Storm Date Finder was created to provide a  quick and effective way to locate storm dates for any given point within the United States. 

Storm Date Finder does not just simply use generic storm reports to calculate storm dates as there are many gaps within this data. We apply a wide array of data to close the gaps of storm date information, capturing the most isolated storm events!

One of many use case scenarios:
A property owner recently discovered a new roof leak and is unsure what the cause could be. Storm Date Finder allows the ability to easily determine if severe weather may have been a factor on the property by providing information on the most recent storms and also the most impactful storms.

A vehicle owner recently discovered hail dents on a portion of their vehicle however can not remember when the hail event occurred. Simply type in the address or coordinates where the vehicle was most commonly parked and determine the most likely date and estimation of hail size.

A restoration contractor has been called out to inspect property for a client and finds notable hail damage. The property owner can not remember when hail would have occurred. The restoration contractor simply opens the Storm Finder app and immediately receives an overview of storm date information for the last year. 

Storm Date Finder breaks down storm dates into 4 categories
