Evidence / storm surfaces
How Avon Park saw the hail — from two instruments
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.
Radar signature field Where NEXRAD flagged hail as the storm passed — point signatures from the radar, which indicate hail overhead rather than confirm what landed.
Estimated size field The modeled maximum hail size across the swath, derived from radar aloft — the largest stone the storm could have supported, which is not necessarily what reached the ground.
The storm in context
Where Jul 10, 2026 sits in Avon Park's hail record.
This was Avon Park's 9th recorded hail day, arriving 3 days after the Jul 7, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 1st of the 13 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Avon Park at 1.25" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.
The Jul 10, 2026 convective day was bigger than Avon Park: the same system put hail over 682 other tracked cities, 89 of them in Florida. Nearest: Sebring (9 miles southwest, up to 1.25"); Frostproof (9 miles northwest, up to 1"); Fort Meade (23 miles northwest, up to 2").

Ground reports
What people on the ground reported
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.
Nobody on the ground filed a report over Avon Park for this date, which says more about who was watching than about the storm: spotter reports only exist where there is an observer. The radar surfaces above carry the evidence for this one.
Damage-capable hail signal
What 1.25" hail means for Avon Park roofs.
Quarter-size and larger hail can bruise asphalt mats, remove granules, and dent exposed soft metal. The mapped footprint identifies an inspection priority area — it does not identify which individual roofs, if any, sustained damage.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$72M
Potential roof exposure — 6,039 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 30 jobs
- Illustrative work
- ~$450K
Close just 0.5% of the 6,039 homes in this footprint at the average $15,000 roof job. Illustrative math, not a projection — your results depend on your outreach and how the market responds.
Claim window
July 2028
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around July 2028 — the window to reach these homeowners while it's still open. Deadlines vary by policy and state.
Names and phones for every home in the footprint: at most $1,268 on top of the $150 plan.
