About Sublette County, WY
Sublette County occupies the high mountain basins of western Wyoming, ringed by the Wind River and Wyoming ranges in country that holds the headwaters of the Green River. Hail is occasional; summer afternoons can build storms over the surrounding peaks, and upslope flow toward that high terrain sometimes lets them grow stones toward golf ball size. The Riverton/Lander (KRIW) radar lies about 76 miles to the east, far enough that mountains and distance leave it reading storm tops more than ground detail.

What this means for your home
If you were just hit
With recent hail in Sublette County, you're still in the window to document and report it. Photograph any damage, note the storm date, confirm what radar detected at your address, and review your policy's reporting requirements. Deadlines vary.
Damage can be invisible from the ground
At Sublette County's typical sizes, hail often bruises shingles and loosens granules without obvious holes, shortening roof life in ways that are easy to miss until the next storm or an inspection.
Document before you repair
If you suspect hail damage, photograph it and note the storm's date before making any repairs. Undocumented or already-fixed damage is much harder to claim later.
Claims have deadlines
Policies set a deadline for hail-damage claims, and state law may also apply. Windows range from months to several years depending on your state and policy. Knowing the exact date hail hit your address helps you file on time.
Get more than one estimate
After a damaging storm, reputable local roofers get busy and out-of-town crews flood in. Get multiple written estimates and verify licensing and local references before signing anything.
Replacement cost vs. actual cash value
An RCV policy pays to replace your roof at today's prices; an ACV policy subtracts depreciation for the roof's age, which can mean a much smaller check on an older roof. Knowing which you carry shapes what a hail claim is actually worth.
