Evidence / storm surfaces
How Raymondville saw the hail — from two instruments
We map this storm two ways: the NEXRAD radar signatures the storm produced overhead, and the radar-estimated size of the hail in the air. The two surfaces don’t have to match — where they diverge is where estimated size aloft ran ahead of, or behind, what the signatures caught.
Estimated size field Maximum hail size as estimated from radar aloft. Treat it as the storm's ceiling — the largest supportable stone — rather than a ground measurement.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for May 30, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Raymondville, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where May 30, 2026 sits in Raymondville's hail record.
This was Raymondville's 7th recorded hail day, arriving 6 days after the May 24, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 2nd of the 17 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Raymondville at 2.25" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The May 30, 2026 convective day was bigger than Raymondville: the same system put hail over 541 other tracked cities, 9 of them in Texas. Nearest: Lyford (14 miles southwest, up to 2.25"); Harlingen (15 miles southwest, up to 2.25"); Rio Hondo (17 miles southeast, up to 1.25").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 17 Raymondville 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.
For this storm over Raymondville, 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.
Severe hail signal
What 2.25" hail means for Raymondville roofs.
Two-inch-plus hail is capable of puncturing shingles, breaking skylights or windows, and heavily denting soft materials. The strongest radar bands warrant prompt inspection, but neither the signal nor the footprint confirms damage at a specific address.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$3.8M
Potential roof exposure — 319 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 319 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.
