Two ways to read the storm

How Orlando saw the hail — from two instruments

Each storm gets two readings: the radar signatures NEXRAD recorded as the cells passed overhead, and a modeled estimate of hail size in the air. They are independent surfaces, so a mismatch between them is expected — and worth reading.

NEXRAD radar-signature map of the hail storm over Orlando, FL on Jun 30, 2026 — The point detections NEXRAD recorded overhead. Each signature marks where the radar saw hail aloft — it is a detection, not a stone measured on the ground.

The storm in context

Where Jun 30, 2026 sits in Orlando's hail record

This was Orlando's 10th recorded hail day, arriving 1 day after the Jun 29, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 7th of the 21 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Orlando at 1.25" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.

The Jun 30, 2026 convective day was bigger than Orlando: the same system put hail over 720 other tracked cities, 97 of them in Florida. Nearest: Windermere (7 miles north, up to 1"); Winter Garden (7 miles north, up to 1"); Davenport (9 miles southwest, up to 1.75").

These maps are stills from Orlando's Jun 30, 2026 storm. In the Overview app the same surfaces are live — radar updating in real time, radar-estimated hail size as it forms, and NWS spotter reports pinned where they're filed — with a radar replay you can scrub back over any past day.

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.

For this storm over Orlando, the NWS report log is empty — a common outcome, since ground reports only happen when someone witnesses the hail and takes the time to call it in. The detection record for the date lives in the radar maps above.

Shingle-bruising hail

What 1.25" hail means for Orlando roofs

Quarter-size and larger hail is where asphalt shingle damage starts in earnest: bruised mats and granule loss that homeowners can't see from the ground. Most people inside the footprint won't know their roof was hit until someone inspects it.

What this storm is worth to a roofer

$228M

Potential roof exposure — 18,998 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
