Both radar surfaces caught this storm: NEXRAD logged 20 hail signatures up to 2.5", and the radar-estimated size reached 1" aloft. At 2.5" — baseball — this is severe, roof-replacing hail: close to every roof inside the footprint becomes a claim candidate.
A tornado was also reported to the National Weather Service during this storm — see the ground reports below.

Independent storm reports filed with the NWS.
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.
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.
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.
This was Chandlersville's 2nd recorded hail day, arriving 45 days after the Jun 6, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 1st of the 2 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Chandlersville at 2.5" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.
The Jul 21, 2026 convective day was bigger than Chandlersville: the same system put hail over 703 other tracked cities, 117 of them in Ohio. Nearest: Blue Rock (7 miles south, up to 2.5"); Norwich (7 miles north, up to 0.5"); Zanesville (11 miles northwest, up to 2.5").
These maps are stills from Chandlersville's Jul 21, 2026 storm. In the Overview app the same surfaces are live — radar updating in real time, radar-estimated hail size as it forms, and NWS spotter reports pinned where they're filed — with a radar replay you can scrub back over any past day.
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.

Reports came from Duncan Falls — beyond Chandlersville itself.
Two-inch-plus hail punctures shingles, breaks skylights and windows, and dents anything soft. In the core of a footprint like this, close to every roof is a candidate for an insurance claim. Speed decides who writes those jobs.
