Evidence / storm surfaces
How Freedom 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 Mar 10, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Freedom, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Mar 10, 2026 sits in Freedom's hail record.
This was Freedom's 2nd recorded hail day, arriving 7 days after the Mar 3, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 2nd of the 12 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Freedom at 1.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Mar 10, 2026 convective day was bigger than Freedom: the same system put hail over 470 other tracked cities, 49 of them in Oklahoma. Nearest: Buffalo (28 miles west, up to 1.5"); Coldwater (29 miles north, up to 1.5"); Lake City (31 miles northeast, up to 1.25").

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 Freedom. 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.
High damage potential
What 1.5" hail means for Freedom 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
$2.9M
Potential roof exposure — 241 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 241 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 $51 on top of the $150 plan.
