WeatherOps vs Interactive Hail Maps
Address-level hail history you can trust vs. a hail map that carries the address all the way to the claim
See WeatherOps free→Interactive Hail Maps does one job and does it credibly: hail maps for storm contractors. Hail swath maps, storm-date history, and per-address hail history lookups and reports that crews use to pick their next market and to back up a date of loss — plus canvassing-oriented alerts when a new storm hits. Plenty of storm teams have run their targeting on it for years.
WeatherOps starts from the same map and keeps going. Animated radar, claim-grade hail swaths, and per-property storm history are the front door to a full storm-restoration platform: draw an area and build a lead list, pull owner and equity intelligence with a credit-gated contact unlock, measure the roof with a sketch, AI geometry, or a verified aerial add-on, generate a WeatherOps AI estimate with code references, assemble the claim file, and run the job through the built-in CRM with proposals and e-sign.
The practical difference is what happens after the map. With a map-and-report tool, every promising address gets carried by hand into a spreadsheet or a separate CRM, and the evidence that found the lead gets re-gathered at claim time. With WeatherOps, the swath, the lead, the measurement, the estimate, and the claim are one record.

When Interactive Hail Maps might be the better fit
Where Interactive Hail Maps shines: if your pipeline already lives in another CRM and all you want is a dependable hail layer — swath maps, storm dates, and per-address hail history reports contractors have trusted for years — it's a focused, proven choice at exactly that job, and the canvassing alerts tell your crews a storm hit without anyone watching radar. Where WeatherOps fits better: teams tired of carrying addresses out of a map into three other tools. WeatherOps takes the same swath through the lead list, owner intel, measurement, estimate, and claim file without a single hand-off.
Frequently asked questions
Can WeatherOps replace Interactive Hail Maps?
For most storm teams, yes. WeatherOps includes animated radar, claim-grade hail swaths, and per-property storm history — the job Interactive Hail Maps is bought for — plus the lead list, owner intelligence, roof measurements, AI estimates, claim packet, and CRM that a map-and-report tool leaves to other software.
How do the hail history reports compare?
Interactive Hail Maps built its name on address-level hail history reports, and they've earned contractors' trust. WeatherOps pulls per-property storm history going back years for any address too — and then attaches it to the lead, the estimate, and the claim file automatically, so the history that opened the door is the same evidence the adjuster reads.
Can I use Interactive Hail Maps and WeatherOps together?
You can — nothing stops you from cross-checking storms in both. But WeatherOps includes its own hail swaths and per-address storm history, so once the lead list, estimates, and claims move into WeatherOps, most teams find a second hail-map subscription redundant.
What does switching look like?
Low-friction. WeatherOps generates its own storm evidence — the map, the swaths, and storm history for any address — so there's nothing to migrate. Start the subscription, open the storm map, draw your first area, and the leads land in the built-in pipeline.
