How Indiantown saw the hail — from two instruments

Sep 5, 2026 · Indiantown, 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.

The storm in context

Where Sep 5, 2026 sits in Indiantown's hail record.

This was Indiantown's 12th recorded hail day, arriving 2 days after the Sep 3, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 8th of the 13 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Indiantown at 0.75" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Sep 5, 2026 convective day was bigger than Indiantown: the same system put hail over 514 other tracked cities, 12 of them in Florida. Nearest: Loxahatchee (33 miles southeast, up to 0.5"); Vero Beach (43 miles north, up to 0.5"); Clewiston (48 miles southwest, up to 1.25").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 13 Indiantown 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 Indiantown. 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 Indiantown 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.

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 11, 2026.
