Severe thunderstorms can bring violent winds and hail that pummel crops in the U.S. Midwest and Great Plains.

A new database made by @NASA_Marshall & @UofAlabama scientists compiles 1,600+ @nasa satellite images of this damage from 2000-2020. go.nasa.gov/3stnWTb

Hail and wind damage cause $9 billion per year on average in the U.S., according to @noaa. This database is the first step to understand trends in where and when these events occur, which could help farmers evaluate and mitigate risk. go.nasa.gov/3stnWTb
