Two ways to read the storm

How Hohenwald 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.

NEXRAD radar signatures

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.

Where Jul 11, 2026 sits in Hohenwald's hail record

This was Hohenwald's 6th recorded hail day, arriving 6 days after the Jul 5, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 3rd of the 6 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Hohenwald at 1.5" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.

The Jul 11, 2026 convective day was bigger than Hohenwald: the same system put hail over 483 other tracked cities, 68 of them in Tennessee. Nearest: Hampshire (8 miles east, up to 2"); Summertown (9 miles southeast, up to 2"); Mount Pleasant (13 miles southeast, up to 2").

These maps are stills from Hohenwald's Jul 11, 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.

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.

Nobody on the ground filed a report over Hohenwald for this date, which says more about who was watching than about the storm: spotter reports only exist where there is an observer. The radar surfaces above carry the evidence for this one.

Widespread claimable damage

What 1.5" hail means for Hohenwald roofs

At an inch and a half, hail cracks shingles, strips granules down to the mat, and dents gutters, vents, and siding. A footprint like this typically produces a wave of insurance claims — and the contractor who reaches the homeowner first usually gets the inspection.

Other storms in Hohenwald

A storm day here is a convective day — it runs from noon to noon UTC, so late-night hail is grouped with the afternoon storm that spawned it rather than split across two calendar dates. Ground reports are public-domain observations from the NOAA Storm Prediction Center. Radar surfaces are detections and estimates, not confirmed damage. Last updated Aug 3, 2026.
