Storm Event Ledger turns NOAA’s storm archive into county histories
A searchable public-data tool for comparing ten years of NOAA storm-event reports by county, state, event type, season, and reported impact.
Field notes
The archive groups NOAA Storm Events records into county or area files and exposes comparisons by year, season, event type, reported impacts, and recent record IDs. Its county-coded slice contains 20 event types, with Thunderstorm Wind and Hail accounting for the largest listed totals. Where a valid match exists, the site adds a 2024 ACS population denominator, while noting that legacy reporting areas are not silently mapped onto modern Census counties.
