Evidence / storm surfaces
How Grapevine saw the hail — from two instruments
The maps here read the same storm from two angles — point detections from NEXRAD, and modeled hail size aloft. Where the two disagree is informative: it marks where estimated size outran the signatures, or trailed them.
Estimated size field The modeled maximum hail size across the swath, derived from radar aloft — the largest stone the storm could have supported, which is not necessarily what reached the ground.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for May 24, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Grapevine, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where May 24, 2026 sits in Grapevine's hail record.
This was Grapevine's 2nd recorded hail day, arriving 26 days after the Apr 28, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 3rd of the 3 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Grapevine at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The May 24, 2026 convective day was bigger than Grapevine: the same system put hail over 200 other tracked cities, 76 of them in Texas. Nearest: Irving (6 miles east, up to 0.75"); Grand Prairie (12 miles southeast, up to 0.75"); Keller (12 miles west, up to 0.75").

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 Grapevine. 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.
Below the severe threshold
What 0.5" hail means for Grapevine roofs.
Radar signals under three-quarters of an inch stay below the National Weather Service severe threshold and generally indicate lower roof risk. Older or already-worn materials can still show effects, but radar alone cannot determine whether a specific roof was damaged.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$53M
Potential roof exposure — 4,423 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 22 jobs
- Illustrative work
- ~$330K
Close just 0.5% of the 4,423 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
May 2028
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around May 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 $929 on top of the $150 plan.
