Questions Lakewood homeowners ask
- When was the last hail storm in Lakewood?
August 26, 2026. Weather radar put 1 inch hail over Lakewood, covering about 3% of it, on August 26. Hail that size (quarter) can bruise asphalt shingles and dent gutters, downspouts and air-conditioner fins; this is the size the National Weather Service calls severe.
- How many storms has Lakewood had since 2023?
30 storm days reached the National Weather Service's severe line in or within a mile of Lakewood: 16 with high wind, 11 with heavy snow, 3 with hail. Each one is listed on this page with its date and what was reported.
- Does a storm in Lakewood mean my roof is damaged?
No. It means the storm reached your area at a strength that can mark a roof, which is why insurers and roofers both look after one. Hail of an inch or more and gusts of 58 mph or more are the sizes that can leave damage you cannot see from the yard, so the next step is a look at the roof, not a decision.
- How do you know a storm reached my street?
From the National Weather Service: its storm reports (hail sizes and wind speeds called in by trained spotters, emergency managers and weather stations), its warnings and damage surveys, and the radar hail estimates it publishes. The street check on this page reads the same records for one address.
The next step after a storm like this is a look at the roof.

The bigger picture for Denver Metro
The National Insurance Crime Bureau's review of hail loss claims from 2017 through 2019 ranked Colorado second in the nation with 380,066 claims, and put Denver, with 51,887, and Colorado Springs, with 38,044, among its top five U.S. cities for hail claims. Source.
Colorado law bars a roofing contractor from advertising or promising to pay, waive or rebate any part of a homeowner's insurance deductible on a roofing claim, and lets the homeowner cancel the roofing contract within 72 hours of written notice that the insurer denied the claim in whole or in part.
