How Saint Cloud saw the hail — from two instruments

Jul 6, 2026 · Saint Cloud, FL

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.

The storm in context

Where Jul 6, 2026 sits in Saint Cloud's hail record.

This was Saint Cloud's 10th recorded hail day, arriving 6 days after the Jun 30, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 15th of the 19 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Saint Cloud at 1" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.

The Jul 6, 2026 convective day was bigger than Saint Cloud: the same system put hail over 832 other tracked cities, 40 of them in Florida. Nearest: Kissimmee (10 miles west, up to 1.5"); Kenansville (14 miles south, up to 1.75"); Davenport (18 miles west, up to 1").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 19 Saint Cloud 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.

For this storm over Saint Cloud, 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.

Damage-capable hail signal

What 1" hail means for Saint Cloud 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.

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.
