Johnson County Sits in Tornado and Hail Country
The DFW area, including Johnson County, sees active severe weather in spring and early fall. Tornadoes, large hail, and damaging straight-line winds are the main hazards. Hail can damage roofs and vehicles frequently enough that insurance rates reflect it.
Standard homeowner insurance typically covers wind and hail damage, but does NOT cover flooding. If your property is near a creek or river, ask your agent about flood insurance through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP). Check weather.gov for current forecasts and alerts from the National Weather Service Fort Worth office.
