⚡ Haily's Briefing

No active hail or wind alerts are posted for Oregon, and there are no notable local events to flag. The SPC analysis you provided does not mention Oregon-specific threats; its severe weather focus is well east of the state, with the main corridors centered across the Upper Midwest, west-central Minnesota into northeast South Dakota, and parts of the Ozarks/eastern Arkansas, where SPC notes hail up to 1.5–2.5 inches, wind gusts around 55–70 mph, and a couple of tornadoes possible.

Ranked by SPC verified storm reports (wind, hail, tornado) across all 50 states over the last 12 months. Severity-weighted index scores each report by hazard (tornado ×20, hail ×4, wind ×1) so a single derecho's flood of wind reports doesn't outweigh tornado outbreaks. Recalculated daily as of Sep 11, 2026.

Proudly AI-powered. Honestly sourced. IDOLCheck is built by HailyAI. Every storm event, magnitude, radar snapshot, and date on this page is deterministic — retrieved directly from official NOAA, National Weather Service (NWS), and Storm Prediction Center (SPC) storm records through our HailyDB engine and displayed exactly as reported. Quoted warning and report text is always attributed to its official source. Where the surrounding copy is not a direct quote, it was generated with AI assistance from that same verified storm data and reviewed and approved by humans before publication. AI organizes and presents the record — it never invents storm data.
