Evidence / storm surfaces
How Umatilla 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 Jul 30, 2026 sits in Umatilla's hail record.
This was Umatilla's 7th recorded hail day, arriving 3 days after the Jul 27, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 3rd of the 7 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Umatilla at 0.75" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.
The Jul 30, 2026 convective day was bigger than Umatilla: the same system put hail over 432 other tracked cities, 69 of them in Florida. Nearest: Mount Dora (18 miles southeast, up to 0.75"); Eustis (19 miles east, up to 0.75"); Sorrento (23 miles southeast, up to 0.75").

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 Umatilla. 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 Umatilla 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
$29M
Potential roof exposure — 2,403 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 12 jobs
- Illustrative work
- ~$180K
Close just 0.5% of the 2,403 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
July 2028
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around July 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 $505 on top of the $150 plan.
