How Deer Park saw the hail — from two instruments

Aug 19, 2026 · Deer Park, AL

The maps here read the same storm from two angles — point detections from NEXRAD, and modeled hail size aloft. Where the two disagree is informative: it marks where estimated size outran the signatures, or trailed them.

Where NEXRAD flagged hail as the storm passed — point signatures from the radar, which indicate hail overhead rather than confirm what landed.

The storm in context

Where Aug 19, 2026 sits in Deer Park's hail record.

This was Deer Park's 5th recorded hail day, arriving 57 days after the Jun 23, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 4th of the 7 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Deer Park at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Aug 19, 2026 convective day was bigger than Deer Park: the same system put hail over 496 other tracked cities, 39 of them in Alabama. Nearest: Tibbie (6 miles east, up to 0.5"); Chatom (7 miles north, up to 0.5"); Mc Intosh (14 miles southeast, up to 0.5").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 7 Deer Park storm dates on a live map — both surfaces, the reports, and a replay — and the same map is where you draw the swath. This page rebuilds nightly.

Ground reports

What people on the ground reported

No reports filed with the NWS

These are storm reports filed with the National Weather Service and released through the NOAA Storm Prediction Center — public-domain observations from spotters, the public, and NWS surveys. We quote each one exactly as filed.

For this storm over Deer Park, the NWS report log is empty — a common outcome, since ground reports only happen when someone witnesses the hail and takes the time to call it in. The detection record for the date lives in the radar maps above.

Below the severe threshold

What 0.5" hail means for Deer Park roofs.

Radar signals under three-quarters of an inch stay below the National Weather Service severe threshold and generally indicate lower roof risk. Older or already-worn materials can still show effects, but radar alone cannot determine whether a specific roof was damaged.

A storm day here is a convective day — it runs from noon to noon UTC, so late-night hail is grouped with the afternoon storm that spawned it rather than split across two calendar dates. Ground reports are public-domain observations from the NOAA Storm Prediction Center. Radar tells you where to look. Only an inspection confirms damage at an address. Last updated Sep 11, 2026.
