The June 24, 2026 Storm
June 24 was the largest hail event of the 2026 Front Range season. The same system that dropped softball-sized hail on Longmont and Boulder tracked across the north metro, hitting Commerce City along with Brighton, Thornton, Westminster, and Northglenn.
Commerce City’s northern growth — Reunion, Buffalo Run, the Villages at Buffalo Run, and Belle Creek — sits on open plains ground with no terrain to weaken an incoming storm. Those neighborhoods are largely 2000s and newer builder stock. Homeowners often assume a young roof can’t be damaged. On exposed ground in a storm this size, that’s exactly backwards.
Why Waiting Costs You
- Hail damage rarely leaks right away. Bruised shingles fail months later, after the claim window closes.
- Most Colorado policies allow one year from date of loss, some less. Your clock started June 24, 2026.
- Builder-grade shingles on Reunion and Buffalo Run roofs take claimable bruising within their first decade.

Is it too late to file for June 24, 2026?
No. Most Colorado policies allow a year from the date of loss, though some are shorter. Inspect first, then file with documentation in hand.
What does the inspection cost?
Nothing. No cost, no obligation, no pressure close. If your roof is fine, we’ll tell you it’s fine.

Colorado hail & insurance: by the numbers (2026)
- Colorado ranks #2 in the U.S. for hail insurance claims, behind only Texas.
- The Front Range sits in “Hail Alley,” the highest frequency of large hail in North America — about 7–9 hail days a year.
- A Colorado state analysis (Feb 2026) found hail is 26–54% of the homeowners premium depending on county — roughly 50% along the Front Range.
- The average Colorado premium hit about $6,630 in 2026, up ~100.8% since 2020 — the largest increase of any state.
- Colorado typically sees 3–4 catastrophic hailstorms a year (each ≥ $25M in insured damage); severe season runs mid-April to mid-September.
