Storm record · Edgecombe County
Edgecombe County's record includes 6 tornadoes
What the public record says about roofs in Leggett and the rest of Edgecombe County
Between 2016 and 2026 NOAA logged 57 roof-relevant storm events in Edgecombe County: 41 thunderstorm wind, 10 hail and 6 tornadoes. The strongest straight-line gust on file is 50 kt, on Feb 24, 2016.
Tornado damage is different in kind from everything else in this record. It is narrow — a track a few hundred yards wide can take the roofs off one street and leave the next street untouched — and inside the track the failure is structural rather than cosmetic: decking lifted off the rafters, whole roof planes removed, debris driven through what is left. For the far larger number of homes that sit outside the track, the damage is the same physics as any severe-wind event: pressure at the edges lifting tabs along the eaves and rakes, ridge caps displaced, and impact marks from debris carried out of the track. Both are worth looking at after a tornado-producing system crosses the county, and the dated entries below say when those systems came through.
The $785,500 figure is NOAA's reported property damage for the whole of Edgecombe County from these storms, 2016–2026 — a county-wide reporting total. It is not the cost of a roof, and it is not an amount paid to any property owner.

* 2026 is a partial year — the record runs to the most recent update of the source, not to the end of the year, so its bar is not comparable with the others. A year showing zero had no recorded hail, tornado or thunderstorm-wind event in this county.
