Evidence / storm surfaces
How Naples 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.
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.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for May 21, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Naples, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where May 21, 2026 sits in Naples's hail record.
This was Naples's 7th recorded hail day, arriving 3 days after the May 18, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 7th of the 35 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Naples at 0.75" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The May 21, 2026 convective day was bigger than Naples: the same system put hail over 120 other tracked cities, 13 of them in Florida. Nearest: Bonita Springs (14 miles north, up to 0.5"); Fort Myers (29 miles north, up to 0.5"); Immokalee (36 miles east, up to 0.5").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 35 Naples 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.
No ground reports were filed with the National Weather Service for this storm over Naples. 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 Naples 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
$54M
Potential roof exposure — 4,473 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 22 jobs
- Illustrative work
- ~$330K
Close just 0.5% of the 4,473 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
May 2028
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around May 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 $939 on top of the $150 plan.
