Evidence / storm surfaces
How Normangee saw the hail — from two instruments
Two instruments, one storm: NEXRAD logs the point signatures it detected overhead, while the estimated-size surface models how large the hail aloft could have grown. Agreement between them is not guaranteed — the gaps are where the model ran ahead of, or behind, the detections.
Estimated size field Radar-estimated maximum hail size across the swath, modeled from radar aloft. It reflects the biggest stone the storm could support, which may differ from what actually fell.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Aug 8, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Normangee, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Aug 8, 2026 sits in Normangee's hail record.
This was Normangee's 6th recorded hail day, arriving 75 days after the May 25, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 5th of the 6 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Normangee at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Aug 8, 2026 convective day was bigger than Normangee: the same system put hail over 500 other tracked cities, 28 of them in Texas. Nearest: North Zulch (9 miles southwest, up to 0.75"); Centerville (22 miles north, up to 0.5"); Marquez (27 miles northwest, up to 0.5").

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.
For this storm over Normangee, the NWS report log is empty — a common outcome, since ground reports only happen when someone witnesses the hail and takes the time to call it in. The detection record for the date lives in the radar maps above.
Below the severe threshold
What 0.5" hail means for Normangee 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
$132K
Potential roof exposure — 11 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
Claim window
August 2028
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around August 2028 — the window to reach these homeowners while it's still open. Deadlines vary by policy and state.
