June 19 Hail Storm Summary

The June 19 storm brought a band of severe weather through the east metro, with multiple hail reports across Ramsey County and into neighboring communities. Reported hail ranged from roughly half-dollar size up to 2″ or larger in some spots. Hail in this size range can bruise or fracture asphalt shingles, dent metal flashing and gutters, and damage siding — sometimes in ways that are not obvious until a closer inspection is done. Homeowners can also review official severe weather reports through the National Weather Service Twin Cities office for their area.

Verified Affected Areas and Hail Sizes

Based on storm reports and local activity, the following Ramsey County and east-metro areas may have been affected. If you live in or near any of these communities, an inspection is a sensible next step.

St. Paul / Lake Phalen

Hail up to roughly 2.25″ was reported just north-northeast of St. Paul, with activity around the Lake Phalen area. Older roofs and north- or west-facing slopes in these neighborhoods may show impact marks. St. Paul roofing & hail damage inspections.

Maplewood

Maplewood sits directly in the reported storm path and saw sizable hail. Homes here may have bruised shingles, dented gutters, or siding damage worth documenting. Maplewood roofing & storm damage inspections.

Little Canada

Little Canada reported notable hail activity. Roofs, soft metals, and siding on exposed elevations may have been affected. Little Canada roofing & storm damage inspections.

Falcon Heights

Falcon Heights was within the affected corridor. Homeowners may want an inspection to check for impact damage that is hard to see from the driveway. Falcon Heights roofing & storm damage inspections.

Roseville

Roseville experienced storm activity connected to the same system. Hail of this size can compromise shingle granules and shorten roof life if left undocumented. Roseville roofing & storm damage inspections.

Oakdale Spillover

Just east of Ramsey County, parts of Oakdale saw spillover from the same storm. Oakdale homeowners are welcome to request a free inspection as well. Oakdale roofing & storm damage inspections.

What Hail Can Do to Roofing and Siding

Hail damage is often more than cosmetic. Even when a roof looks intact from the ground, impacts can cause problems that worsen over time:

• Bruised or fractured shingles that lose protective granules
• Cracked or dislodged shingle seals that let water in
• Dented gutters, downspouts, valleys, and flashing
• Dings or cracks in vinyl, steel, or aluminum siding
• Damaged vents, soft metals, and roof accessories

Left unaddressed, hail impacts can lead to leaks, premature aging, and larger repair costs down the road.

Why Damage May Not Be Visible From the Ground

Many homeowners assume that if they cannot see missing shingles, their roof is fine. Hail damage is frequently subtle — bruising, granule loss, and small fractures are difficult to spot from the yard and are easiest to identify with a close-up, on-roof inspection by a trained eye. This is exactly why a professional inspection and clear photo documentation are so valuable after a storm like June 19.
