Evidence / storm surfaces
How Edwards 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 1, 2026 sits in Edwards's hail record.
This was Edwards's 5th recorded hail day, arriving 11 days after the Jun 20, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 3rd of the 9 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Edwards at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jul 1, 2026 convective day was bigger than Edwards: the same system put hail over 1,147 other tracked cities, 121 of them in New York. Nearest: Russell (15 miles east, up to 1"); Heuvelton (17 miles northwest, up to 1"); Hammond (20 miles northwest, up to 0.5").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 9 Edwards 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.
Nobody on the ground filed a report over Edwards for this date, which says more about who was watching than about the storm: spotter reports only exist where there is an observer. The radar surfaces above carry the evidence for this one.
Below the severe threshold
What 0.5" hail means for Edwards roofs.
Radar signals under three-quarters of an inch stay below the National Weather Service severe threshold and generally indicate lower roof risk. Older or already-worn materials can still show effects, but radar alone cannot determine whether a specific roof was damaged.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$144K
Potential roof exposure — 12 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
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.
