A stone four and a quarter inches across is larger than a baseball; it is about the size of a softball. Hail that large does not bruise a shingle, it breaks it, and it can crack decking, split ridge caps, puncture vents and break skylights and windows. A viewer's caption on NBC DFW that evening called it the largest hail in Double Oak in many years.
The figure is for a point near the town, on one evening. It does not mean every roof in Double Oak took a stone that size.

After Hail That Size
Where stones of that size fell, most shingle roofs will have been replaced by now. For a Double Oak owner in 2026 the useful questions are about what happened next:
- Was the deck checked? Very large hail can fracture decking under the shingle. A re-roof over cracked sheets leaves soft spots. A contractor can check from the attic.
- What went back on? If the new roof is a standard shingle, it is no better armored than the old one. See impact-rated shingles.
- Were the walls dealt with? Siding, fascia, window trim and screens on the storm side take the same hits. See siding repair and trim.
- Outbuildings. Detached garages, workshops and barns are often left out of the first round of repairs.
If the roof was not replaced, have it inspected. See hail damage inspection.
