Evidence / storm surfaces
How Brooksville saw the hail — from two instruments
Two instruments, one storm: NEXRAD logs the point signatures it detected overhead, while the estimated-size surface models how large the hail aloft could have grown. Agreement between them is not guaranteed — the gaps are where the model ran ahead of, or behind, the detections.
Estimated size field Radar-estimated maximum hail size across the swath, modeled from radar aloft. It reflects the biggest stone the storm could support, which may differ from what actually fell.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for May 24, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Brooksville, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where May 24, 2026 sits in Brooksville's hail record.
This was Brooksville's 3rd recorded hail day, arriving 70 days after the Mar 15, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 8th of the 13 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Brooksville at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The May 24, 2026 convective day was bigger than Brooksville: the same system put hail over 200 other tracked cities, 16 of them in Florida. Nearest: Bushnell (19 miles east, up to 0.75"); New Port Richey (24 miles southwest, up to 0.5"); Odessa (37 miles south, up to 0.5").

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.
No ground reports were filed with the National Weather Service for this storm over Brooksville. That is common: a report depends on someone being there to see it and take the time to call it in. The radar surfaces above are the record here — the storm was detected from above even though no one on the ground logged it.
Below the severe threshold
What 0.5" hail means for Brooksville 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.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$15M
Potential roof exposure — 1,249 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 6 jobs
- Illustrative work
- ~$90K
Close just 0.5% of the 1,249 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
May 2028
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around May 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 $262 on top of the $150 plan.
