Evidence / storm surfaces

How Clermont saw the hail — from two instruments

Sep 6, 2026 · Clermont, 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.

Radar-estimated hail size Surface resolved
Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Clermont, FL on Sep 6, 2026 Estimated size field

Maximum hail size as estimated from radar aloft. Treat it as the storm's ceiling — the largest supportable stone — rather than a ground measurement.

Max size 0.5"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Sep 6, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Clermont, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Sep 6, 2026 sits in Clermont's hail record.

This was Clermont's 19th recorded hail day, arriving 8 days after the Aug 29, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 16th of the 19 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Clermont at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Sep 6, 2026 convective day was bigger than Clermont: the same system put hail over 608 other tracked cities, 12 of them in Florida. Nearest: Orlando (14 miles northeast, up to 0.5"); Mims (50 miles east, up to 0.5"); Titusville (55 miles east, 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

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.

Nobody on the ground filed a report over Clermont 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.

Below the severe threshold

What 0.5" hail means for Clermont 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 7, 2026.
