Evidence / storm surfaces
How Miami 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 Jun 30, 2026 sits in Miami's hail record.
This was Miami's 7th recorded hail day, arriving 28 days after the Jun 2, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 17th of the 23 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Miami at 1.25" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.
The Jun 30, 2026 convective day was bigger than Miami: the same system put hail over 720 other tracked cities, 97 of them in Florida. Nearest: Homestead (14 miles southeast, up to 0.75"); Immokalee (64 miles northwest, up to 1"); Belle Glade (69 miles north, up to 0.75").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 23 Miami 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
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 Miami. 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.
Damage-capable hail signal
What 1.25" hail means for Miami roofs.
Quarter-size and larger hail can bruise asphalt mats, remove granules, and dent exposed soft metal. The mapped footprint identifies an inspection priority area — it does not identify which individual roofs, if any, sustained damage.
