Texas Severe Weather Hazard Profile

Climate-Adjusted Hazard Data · Model Version 1.0

Overview

Texas has the highest frequency of severe weather events of any US state, according to NOAA Storm Events Database records. The state spans Tornado Alley (North Texas) and Hail Alley (North-Central Texas to the Panhandle). NOAA SPC data shows Texas consistently leads in tornado count, large hail reports, and severe thunderstorm wind reports annually.

Notable Historical Events

12024 May derecho — widespread severe wind damage across Houston metro
22019 Dallas tornado outbreak — EF3 tornado through urban core
32016 Wylie TX hail — baseball to softball-sized hail, $1.2B+ insured losses

Hazard Scoring Approach

CivilSense computes a Climate-Adjusted Hazard Score (0–10) for severe weather hazard at any US address. The score is composed of weighted sub-components derived from federal data sources and peer-reviewed research. All score components are transparent and returned in API responses.

These are hazard scores — physical intensity likelihood only. They do not include property exposure or vulnerability data. We never call a hazard score a risk score. See the full methodology for scoring details.
