Evidence / storm surfaces
How Deland saw the hail — from two instruments
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.
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.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Apr 25, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Deland, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Apr 25, 2026 sits in Deland's hail record.
This was Deland's 2nd recorded hail day, arriving 40 days after the Mar 16, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 6th of the 15 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Deland at 0.75" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Apr 25, 2026 convective day was bigger than Deland: the same system put hail over 392 other tracked cities, 9 of them in Florida. Nearest: Lake Helen (12 miles east, up to 0.75"); Oviedo (24 miles southeast, up to 0.75"); Christmas (42 miles southeast, 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 Deland. 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 Deland 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
$29M
Potential roof exposure — 2,415 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 12 jobs
- Illustrative work
- ~$180K
Close just 0.5% of the 2,415 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
April 2028
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around April 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 $507 on top of the $150 plan.
