Evidence / storm surfaces
How Claremore 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 Apr 28, 2026 sits in Claremore's hail record.
This was Claremore's 3rd recorded hail day, arriving 25 days after the Apr 3, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 3rd of the 11 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Claremore at 1.75" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.
The Apr 28, 2026 convective day was bigger than Claremore: the same system put hail over 724 other tracked cities, 141 of them in Oklahoma. Nearest: Talala (15 miles north, up to 1.75"); Chelsea (15 miles north, up to 1.25"); Inola (15 miles south, up to 1").

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.

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 Oologah — beyond Claremore itself.
High damage potential
What 1.75" hail means for Claremore roofs.
Hail around an inch and a half is capable of cracking shingles, stripping granules, and denting gutters, vents, and siding. Risk is usually greatest near the strongest radar signal, but property-level damage still requires an on-site inspection.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$57M
Potential roof exposure — 4,756 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 24 jobs
- Illustrative work
- ~$360K
Close just 0.5% of the 4,756 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 $999 on top of the $150 plan.
