Evidence / storm surfaces
How Webster 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.
Radar signature field 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.
Estimated size field Radar-estimated hail size over the swath. The model reports the biggest stone the storm could sustain in the air; what actually fell may have been smaller.
The storm in context
Where Jul 6, 2026 sits in Webster's hail record.
This was Webster's 7th recorded hail day, arriving 6 days after the Jun 30, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 13th of the 18 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Webster at 0.75" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.
The Jul 6, 2026 convective day was bigger than Webster: the same system put hail over 832 other tracked cities, 40 of them in Florida. Nearest: Clermont (25 miles east, up to 1.25"); Dover (28 miles south, up to 1"); Leesburg (30 miles northeast, up to 0.5").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 18 Webster 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 Webster. 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 Webster 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.
