Evidence / storm surfaces
How Ozona 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 Jun 18, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Ozona, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Jun 18, 2026 sits in Ozona's hail record.
This was Ozona's 14th recorded hail day, arriving 23 days after the May 26, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 8th of the 14 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Ozona at 1.25" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 18, 2026 convective day was bigger than Ozona: the same system put hail over 221 other tracked cities, 67 of them in Texas. Nearest: Sonora (68 miles east, up to 0.75"); San Angelo (107 miles northeast, up to 0.5"); Odessa (119 miles north, up to 0.5").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 14 Ozona 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.
The National Weather Service logged no spotter reports for this storm over Ozona. 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.
Damage-capable hail signal
What 1.25" hail means for Ozona roofs.
Quarter-size and larger hail can bruise asphalt mats, remove granules, and dent exposed soft metal. The mapped footprint identifies an inspection priority area — it does not identify which individual roofs, if any, sustained damage.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$4.5M
Potential roof exposure — 375 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 2 jobs
- Illustrative work
- ~$30K
Close just 0.5% of the 375 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
June 2028
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around June 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 $79 on top of the $150 plan.
