Evidence / storm surfaces
How Mount Berry saw the hail — from two instruments
Sep 19, 2026 · Mount Berry, GA
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 signatures Surface resolved
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.

Radar-estimated hail size Surface resolved
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 Sep 19, 2026 sits in Mount Berry's hail record.
This was Mount Berry's 2nd recorded hail day, arriving 78 days after the Jul 3, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 2nd of the 3 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Mount Berry at 1" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Sep 19, 2026 convective day was bigger than Mount Berry: the same system put hail over 336 other tracked cities, 31 of them in Georgia. Nearest: Cedartown (14 miles south, up to 0.75"); Cave Spring (15 miles south, up to 0.75"); Kingston (17 miles east, up to 0.5").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 3 Mount Berry 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.

Damage-capable hail signal
What 1" hail means for Mount Berry 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.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
4,581 homes × $12,000 avg. claim
Potential roof exposure

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 21, 2026.
