City-level reports won't settle a claim dispute — the question is what was recorded near your address. The verification report lists every NWS-recorded event within 1, 3 and 10 miles of a specific address, with this date highlighted as a plain-English finding, formatted for an insurance appeal.

NWS records are point and path observations. The absence of a nearby report does NOT prove that no hail fell at this address — it means no observation was logged nearby. A report of nearby hail documents the event; it does not by itself prove damage to a specific structure.
