Evidence / storm surfaces

How Bunnell saw the hail — from two instruments

Jul 9, 2026 · Bunnell, FL

We map this storm two ways: the NEXRAD radar signatures the storm produced overhead, and the radar-estimated size of the hail in the air. The two surfaces don’t have to match — where they diverge is where estimated size aloft ran ahead of, or behind, what the signatures caught.

NEXRAD radar signatures — the point detections the storm produced overhead. A signature is where the radar saw hail, not a confirmed stone on the ground.

The storm in context

Where Jul 9, 2026 sits in Bunnell's hail record.

This was Bunnell's 10th recorded hail day, arriving 4 days after the Jul 5, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 3rd of the 18 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Bunnell at 1.25" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.

The Jul 9, 2026 convective day was bigger than Bunnell: the same system put hail over 944 other tracked cities, 24 of them in Florida. Nearest: Palm Coast (15 miles northeast, up to 1.25"); Daytona Beach (15 miles southeast, up to 1.25"); Georgetown (19 miles west, up to 1").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 18 Bunnell 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.

The National Weather Service logged no spotter reports for this storm over Bunnell. That absence is ordinary — filing a report takes a person on the spot who saw the hail and phoned it in. What stands as the record for this date is the radar above, which caught the storm regardless.

Damage-capable hail signal

What 1.25" hail means for Bunnell 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.

2,476 homes × $12,000 avg. claim

Potential roof exposure

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 Aug 26, 2026.
