History

Potter got its start in the year 1870, following construction of the railroad through the territory. It was named for General Potter, a railroad shareholder.

On July 6, 1928, Potter received the largest hailstone ever recorded, which measured approximately 17 inches (43.2 centimeters) in diameter and weighed approximately 1.5 pounds (680 grams). Another hailstone of that diameter measurement was recovered in Aurora, Nebraska on June 22, 2003.
