Evidence / storm surfaces
How Corinth 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 Mar 15, 2026 sits in Corinth's hail record.
This was Corinth's 1st recorded hail day — the first hail day in our records for the city. By severity it ranks 1st of the 7 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Corinth at 1" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.
The Mar 15, 2026 convective day was bigger than Corinth: the same system put hail over 695 other tracked cities, 64 of them in Mississippi. Nearest: Ramer (7 miles north, up to 1.75"); Rienzi (7 miles south, up to 1"); Walnut (11 miles west, up to 1").

Storm forensics
How the storm moved
Read from the arrival times and locations of the NOAA ground reports, not a radar-measured storm track.
Reports came from Kossuth — beyond Corinth itself.
Damage-capable hail signal
What 1" hail means for Corinth 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.
Potential roof exposure
$20M
Potential roof exposure — 1,700 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 9 jobs
- Illustrative work
- ~$135K
Close just 0.5% of the 1,700 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
March 2028
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around March 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 $357 on top of the $150 plan.
