Evidence / storm surfaces
How Clermont 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 Aug 29, 2026 sits in Clermont's hail record.
This was Clermont's 18th recorded hail day, arriving 3 days after the Aug 26, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 12th of the 19 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Clermont at 0.75" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Aug 29, 2026 convective day was bigger than Clermont: the same system put hail over 113 other tracked cities, 34 of them in Florida. Nearest: Winter Garden (6 miles east, up to 0.5"); Winter Haven (35 miles south, up to 0.5"); Lakeland (37 miles south, up to 0.5").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 19 Clermont 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
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 Clermont. 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.
Near the severe threshold
What 0.75" hail means for Clermont roofs.
A signal this size sits near the National Weather Service severe threshold. Aging shingles and soft metals such as vents, flashing, and gutters may be more vulnerable; roof age, wind, and material condition all matter, and only an inspection can confirm damage.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$23M
Potential roof exposure — 1,895 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 9 jobs
- Illustrative work
- ~$135K
Close just 0.5% of the 1,895 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.
