Brazoria County had 6 hail days and 14 days with damaging thunderstorm winds from 2020 through 2025, according to NOAA storm records. The largest hail reported was 1.75 inches across. Storms here are more likely to cause power surges than coil damage, so a surge protector on the outdoor unit is worth the small cost. Brazoria County also had 4 tornado days in that period.
