Evidence / storm surfaces
How Hydro saw the hail — from two instruments
We map this storm two ways: the NEXRAD radar signatures the storm produced overhead, and the radar-estimated size of the hail in the air. The two surfaces don’t have to match — where they diverge is where estimated size aloft ran ahead of, or behind, what the signatures caught.
Estimated size field Maximum hail size as estimated from radar aloft. Treat it as the storm's ceiling — the largest supportable stone — rather than a ground measurement.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Oct 13, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Hydro, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Oct 13, 2026 sits in Hydro's hail record.
This was Hydro's 11th recorded hail day, arriving 91 days after the Jul 14, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 1st of the 11 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Hydro at 0.75" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Oct 13, 2026 convective day was bigger than Hydro: the same system put hail over 183 other tracked cities, 20 of them in Oklahoma. Nearest: Colony (11 miles southwest, up to 0.75"); Weatherford (16 miles southwest, up to 0.75"); Corn (21 miles west, up to 0.75").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 11 Hydro 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.
Wind reports
1 reportNear the severe threshold
What 0.75" hail means for Hydro roofs.
A signal this size sits near the National Weather Service severe threshold. Aging shingles and soft metals such as vents, flashing, and gutters may be more vulnerable; roof age, wind, and material condition all matter, and only an inspection can confirm damage.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$4.6M
Potential roof exposure — 380 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 2 jobs
- Illustrative work
- ~$30K
Close just 0.5% of the 380 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
October 2028
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around October 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 $80 on top of the $150 plan.
