The storm happened. Prove it.
Your adjuster says there's no record of hail at your address. The National Weather Service keeps the record. HailEvidence turns it into a per-address verification report — every NWS-recorded hail and wind event within 1, 3 and 10 miles, with the official narrative, distance, and citation for each one. Generated in seconds, formatted for an insurance appeal.
