Radar estimated hail up to 0.87 inches in North Georgia on July 3, 2022, with three quarters of an inch or more in 7 counties, around Tiger, Stephens, Union Point, Watkinsville.

Using this date on a claim

Your date of loss should be the day the storm actually hit your address. If two storms came close together, the policy and the evidence decide whether that is one claim or two, so document both. Read how to choose a date of loss.
