We here is Southeast Idaho have seen the weather change from sunny to rain to snow within a matter of hours but the hail storm that hit Idaho Falls on April 7, 2018 was something we have never seen.  Oh yes, the occasional hail storm is expected every year but this one came out of no where and brought with it a VERY RARE occurrence in our area, a TORNADO WARNING.  The hail storm ripped through Idaho Falls last weekend causing havoc with vinyl siding on many homes.  Many were wondering if their homeowners insurance would cover the damage.  Under a standard policy Hail that causes property damage is a ‘named peril’ and most will typically cover the damage.  Be sure to check your policy to be certain.  SERVPRO of Idaho Falls can help direct you to various companies around town that specialize in this type of weather related damage.
