How Bay Minette saw the hail — from two instruments

Jun 19, 2026 · Bay Minette, AL

The maps here read the same storm from two angles — point detections from NEXRAD, and modeled hail size aloft. Where the two disagree is informative: it marks where estimated size outran the signatures, or trailed them.

Radar-estimated hail size Surface resolved
Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Bay Minette, AL on Jun 19, 2026 Estimated size field

The modeled maximum hail size across the swath, derived from radar aloft — the largest stone the storm could have supported, which is not necessarily what reached the ground.

Max size 0.75"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 19, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Bay Minette, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Jun 19, 2026 sits in Bay Minette's hail record.

This was Bay Minette's 4th recorded hail day, arriving 42 days after the May 8, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 8th of the 15 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Bay Minette at 0.75" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Jun 19, 2026 convective day was bigger than Bay Minette: the same system put hail over 339 other tracked cities, 16 of them in Alabama. Nearest: Chunchula (33 miles northwest, up to 0.5"); Mobile (36 miles west, up to 0.5"); Atmore (39 miles northeast, up to 0.5").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 15 Bay Minette 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

No reports filed with the NWS

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.

The National Weather Service logged no spotter reports for this storm over Bay Minette. That absence is ordinary — filing a report takes a person on the spot who saw the hail and phoned it in. What stands as the record for this date is the radar above, which caught the storm regardless.

Near the severe threshold

What 0.75" hail means for Bay Minette roofs.

A signal this size sits near the National Weather Service severe threshold. Aging shingles and soft metals such as vents, flashing, and gutters may be more vulnerable; roof age, wind, and material condition all matter, and only an inspection can confirm damage.

A storm day here is a convective day — it runs from noon to noon UTC, so late-night hail is grouped with the afternoon storm that spawned it rather than split across two calendar dates. Ground reports are public-domain observations from the NOAA Storm Prediction Center. Radar tells you where to look. Only an inspection confirms damage at an address. Last updated Sep 21, 2026.
