Crop hail claim weather verification

Use when a crop insurance adjuster needs to verify a hail or windstorm claim before a field inspection. Reads severe weather warnings issued over the field around the reported date, station-grid rainfall and temperatures, and satellite vegetation indices before and after the event, then states whether the record supports the claim.

# Crop hail claim weather verification

For one field and the reported loss date. The field polygon (GeoJSON) carries into every call.

## 1. Was there a warning

1. Read @[National Weather Service · Alerts history](alexandria:api-weather-gov/weather/alerts_history) for the field polygon from three days before to three days after the loss date (events "Severe Thunderstorm", "Tornado").

## 2. What the weather did

2. Read @[ACIS · Daily weather history](alexandria:rcc-acis-org/weather-history/daily_weather_history) for the field over the same week for rainfall and temperature swings.
3. Read @[NASA POWER · Daily weather](alexandria:power-larc-nasa-gov/weather-history/daily_weather) for the same days (WS2M, PRECTOTCORR) as a second source.

## 3. Did the crop change

4. Read @[Earth Search · Vegetation indices](alexandria:earth-search-aws-element84-com/satellite-imagery/vegetation_indices) for the field for the two weeks before and the two weeks after the date. A sharp NDVI drop in some zones but not others fits hail streaks.
5. Render the clearest before and after scenes with @[Earth Search · Render clip](alexandria:earth-search-aws-element84-com/satellite-imagery/render_clip) for the file.

## Write the verification

- **Warnings:** alert type, issue and expiry times covering the field.
- **Weather:** rainfall and wind on the loss date.
- **Crop signal:** NDVI before and after by zone.
- **Finding:** supports, partly supports or does not support the claim; the field inspection still decides.
- **Sources:** cite every figure to the capability and record it came from. Say what could not be found rather than guessing.
