Evidence / storm surfaces
How Mount Calm 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 Apr 28, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Mount Calm, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Apr 28, 2026 sits in Mount Calm's hail record.
This was Mount Calm's 1st recorded hail day — the first hail day in our records for the city. By severity it ranks 1st of the 4 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Mount Calm at 1.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Apr 28, 2026 convective day was bigger than Mount Calm: the same system put hail over 724 other tracked cities, 100 of them in Texas. Nearest: West (6 miles west, up to 1.5"); Hubbard (6 miles east, up to 1.25"); Malone (7 miles north, up to 1.25").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 4 Mount Calm 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.
Nobody on the ground filed a report over Mount Calm 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.
High damage potential
What 1.5" hail means for Mount Calm 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
$38M
Potential roof exposure — 3,187 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 16 jobs
- Illustrative work
- ~$240K
Close just 0.5% of the 3,187 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 $669 on top of the $150 plan.
