Hail in Lisbon · Apr 15, 2026
The estimated-size surface reached 2" aloft; NEXRAD logged no point detections over Lisbon that day. At 2" — tennis ball — this is a severe hail signal associated with roof damage. Open it on the live map to see the swath over the streets.

Evidence / storm surfaces
How Lisbon 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.
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.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Apr 15, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Lisbon, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Apr 15, 2026 sits in Lisbon's hail record.
This was Lisbon's 9th recorded hail day, arriving 24 days after the Mar 22, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 5th of the 30 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Lisbon at 2" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Apr 15, 2026 convective day was bigger than Lisbon: the same system put hail over 425 other tracked cities, 7 of them in New York. Nearest: Croghan (49 miles south, up to 0.5"); Arkville (183 miles south, up to 0.5"); Gillett (202 miles southwest, up to 0.5").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 30 Lisbon 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.
The National Weather Service logged no spotter reports for this storm over Lisbon. That absence is ordinary — filing a report takes a person on the spot who saw the hail and phoned it in. What stands as the record for this date is the radar above, which caught the storm regardless.
Severe hail signal
What 2" hail means for Lisbon roofs.
Two-inch-plus hail is capable of puncturing shingles, breaking skylights or windows, and heavily denting soft materials. The strongest radar bands warrant prompt inspection, but neither the signal nor the footprint confirms damage at a specific address.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$3.1M
Potential roof exposure — 262 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 1 job
- Illustrative work
- ~$15K
Close just 0.5% of the 262 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
April 2028
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around April 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 $55 on top of the $150 plan.
