Tennessee's peak severe-weather season: March–May, with a secondary autumn and winter season. The roofing work it generates comes from straight-line wind, hail, ice storms and tornadoes. The Tennessee storm center lists any National Weather Service alert active now.NOAA's Storm Events Database holds 8,325 county-level severe-weather events across Tennessee between 2016 and 2026, including 403 tornadoes and 1,271 hail reports of 1.00 in or larger; the heaviest county record is Davidson County's, with 518 events. The most recent event in the state meeting the dataset's severity definition was a hail report measuring 1.00 in (Quarter - Half Dollar) in Cumberland County on August 23, 2026, a preliminary report not yet through NOAA's quality-control review.
Our cost model carries no regional index for a Tennessee metro yet, so the figure to plan around is the national baseline, which puts a full roof replacement at $5,625–$27,000. Local labor, permit fees and roof access move it in both directions.
