Hail in Immokalee · Jul 13, 2026
NEXRAD logged 73 hail signatures up to 2.25"; the estimated-size surface reached 1" aloft. At 2.25" — tennis ball — this is a severe hail signal associated with roof damage. Open it on the live map to see the swath over the streets.

Evidence / storm surfaces
How Immokalee saw the hail — from two instruments
Two instruments, one storm: NEXRAD logs the point signatures it detected overhead, while the estimated-size surface models how large the hail aloft could have grown. Agreement between them is not guaranteed — the gaps are where the model ran ahead of, or behind, the detections.
Radar signature field NEXRAD's hail signatures for this storm: the spots the radar detected from above. A detection overhead is not the same thing as a confirmed stone below.
Estimated size field Radar-estimated maximum hail size across the swath, modeled from radar aloft. It reflects the biggest stone the storm could support, which may differ from what actually fell.
The storm in context
Where Jul 13, 2026 sits in Immokalee's hail record.
This was Immokalee's 16th recorded hail day, arriving 3 days after the Jul 10, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 1st of the 20 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Immokalee at 2.25" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.
The Jul 13, 2026 convective day was bigger than Immokalee: the same system put hail over 92 other tracked cities, 32 of them in Florida. Nearest: Clewiston (16 miles northeast, up to 1.75"); Lehigh Acres (30 miles northwest, up to 1.75"); Moore Haven (31 miles north, up to 1.5").

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.

How the storm moved
Read from the arrival times and locations of the NOAA ground reports, not a radar-measured storm track.
Reports came from Miles City — beyond Immokalee itself.
Severe hail signal
What 2.25" hail means for Immokalee roofs.
Two-inch-plus hail is capable of puncturing shingles, breaking skylights or windows, and heavily denting soft materials. The strongest radar bands warrant prompt inspection, but neither the signal nor the footprint confirms damage at a specific address.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$552K
Potential roof exposure — 46 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
Claim window
July 2028
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around July 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 $10 on top of the $150 plan.
