How Lehigh Acres saw the hail — from two instruments

Jun 24, 2026 · Lehigh Acres, FL

The maps here read the same storm from two angles — point detections from NEXRAD, and modeled hail size aloft. Where the two disagree is informative: it marks where estimated size outran the signatures, or trailed them.

Radar-estimated hail size Surface resolved
Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Lehigh Acres, FL on Jun 24, 2026 Estimated size field

The modeled maximum hail size across the swath, derived from radar aloft — the largest stone the storm could have supported, which is not necessarily what reached the ground.

Max size 0.5"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 24, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Lehigh Acres, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Jun 24, 2026 sits in Lehigh Acres's hail record.

This was Lehigh Acres's 7th recorded hail day, arriving 1 day after the Jun 23, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 12th of the 17 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Lehigh Acres at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Jun 24, 2026 convective day was bigger than Lehigh Acres: the same system put hail over 383 other tracked cities, 48 of them in Florida. Nearest: Alva (7 miles north, up to 0.5"); Labelle (14 miles northeast, up to 0.75"); Punta Gorda (23 miles northwest, up to 0.5").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 17 Lehigh Acres 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.

The National Weather Service logged no spotter reports for this storm over Lehigh Acres. That absence is ordinary — filing a report takes a person on the spot who saw the hail and phoned it in. What stands as the record for this date is the radar above, which caught the storm regardless.

Below the severe threshold

What 0.5" hail means for Lehigh Acres 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 30, 2026.
