Community Collaborative Rain, Hail, and Snow Network [1]

[]

Date: 2026-03-09 09:31:54-04:00

CoCoRaHS (pronounced KO-ko-rozz) is a grassroots volunteer network of backyard weather observers of all ages and backgrounds working together to measure and map rain, hail, and snow in their local communities. Now NASA scientists are using hail reports from the CoCoRaHS network and data from NASA missions to better understand how fast hail melts as it falls from the clouds to the ground. This new effort is called the SouthEAst REgion CoCoRaHS Hail, or SEaRCH, project. Join SEaRCH and/or CoCoRaHS to report hail form the southeast US and/or become part of our nationwide precipitation monitoring network. The only requirements for each are enthusiasm for watching and reporting weather conditions - and who doesn’t love weather?.
