Storm Damage in Coweta
Storm damage on a Coweta roof is often invisible from the ground. Wagoner County takes direct tornado passes and heavy hail, which is why the look happens up there.
Storms Coweta Has Actually Taken
Storms here are not a general risk, they are a matter of public record. An EF-1 tornado tracked 13.7 miles from just south of Coweta to the northeast of it, logged in the National Weather Service tornado database for Wagoner County.
That was not the only one. The same NWS county table records another EF-1 east of Coweta a couple of years earlier, and confirmed touchdowns in this county going back nine decades. The county record also carries ping-pong-ball hail measured at 1.50 inches near Broken Arrow, and 86 mph straight-line winds around Oneta.
Wagoner County storm record, on the books.
This is the NOAA record of hail and wind across Wagoner County, 2023–2026. A local roofer weighs your roof against what falls here, not a scare story.
Source: NOAA / NCEI Storm Events Database · Wagoner County 2023–2026 · updated August 2026. Year rows count hail days at 1" or larger; the county figure above counts every hail day on record, at any size. Dated rows are the largest event of each recent year, then the largest remaining on record. The database records at county resolution, which makes it a record of the area rather than of any one address.
What wind and hail leave on Coweta roofs
What wind and hail leave behind, in the order it usually gets noticed.
- Shingles lifted or missing along one plane, which tracks the direction the wind came from.
- Granules washed into gutters and at downspout outlets, heavier than the normal shedding of a roof that age.
- Bruising you can feel rather than see, where hail has damaged the mat under the surface without breaking it.
- Damaged or displaced metal at ridges, valleys and pipe collars, which is often the first thing to go in wind.
None of this is decided from the driveway. It is decided when somebody is on the roof.

Say when the storm was and what you noticed afterward, and a local roofer takes it from there.
