The data from 1962 tend to confirm the preliminary results from 1961 which indicated a general change in storm movement from the west or southwest in May and June to a direction of movement from the northwest in July. A scattering of hail risks perpendicular to these directions would appear to be advantageous. These data provide a substantial beginning in determining the climatology of hailstorms in the High Plains region. With confirming data from years of less intense hail activity, application can be made to problems of insurance premium rating. The data in this report are being used in development of plans for attempts at beneficial modification of hailstorms.technical reportsengCopyright and other restrictions may apply.
