How Dade City saw the hail — from two instruments

Jul 22, 2026 · Dade City, 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.

Max size 0" Detections 0

Only the NEXRAD radar-signature surface resolved for Jul 22, 2026 — the estimated-size swath had no hail signal to model for this storm, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Jul 22, 2026 sits in Dade City's hail record.

This was Dade City's 15th recorded hail day, arriving 5 days after the Jul 17, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 19th of the 19 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Dade City at 0" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Jul 22, 2026 convective day was bigger than Dade City: the same system put hail over 158 other tracked cities, 9 of them in Florida. Nearest: Lithia (49 miles south, up to 0"); Ona (77 miles south, up to 0"); Arcadia (97 miles south, up to 1.25").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 19 Dade City 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.

No ground reports were filed with the National Weather Service for this storm over Dade City. 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" hail means for Dade City 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 Aug 21, 2026.
