How Ozona 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.
Where NEXRAD flagged hail as the storm passed — point signatures from the radar, which indicate hail overhead rather than confirm what landed.
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.
Where Apr 11, 2026 sits in Ozona's hail record
This was Ozona's 2nd recorded hail day, arriving 32 days after the Mar 10, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 14th of the 14 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Ozona at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Apr 11, 2026 convective day was bigger than Ozona: the same system put hail over 134 other tracked cities, 8 of them in Texas. Nearest: Del Rio (53 miles southeast, up to 1.75"); Sonora (62 miles east, up to 1"); Winters (164 miles northeast, up to 1.75").
These maps are stills from Ozona's Apr 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.
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 Ozona 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.
What 0.5" hail means for Ozona roofs
Hail under three-quarters of an inch stays below the National Weather Service severe threshold and rarely breaks shingles outright. But repeated small-hail events accelerate granule loss and shorten roof life — on older roofs, it's still worth a conversation.
