Evidence / storm surfaces
How Moulton saw the hail — from two instruments
We map this storm two ways: the NEXRAD radar signatures the storm produced overhead, and the radar-estimated size of the hail in the air. The two surfaces don’t have to match — where they diverge is where estimated size aloft ran ahead of, or behind, what the signatures caught.
Estimated size field Maximum hail size as estimated from radar aloft. Treat it as the storm's ceiling — the largest supportable stone — rather than a ground measurement.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jul 19, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Moulton, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Jul 19, 2026 sits in Moulton's hail record.
This was Moulton's 9th recorded hail day, arriving 1 day after the Jul 18, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 12th of the 15 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Moulton at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jul 19, 2026 convective day was bigger than Moulton: the same system put hail over 351 other tracked cities, 34 of them in Alabama. Nearest: Mount Hope (13 miles northwest, up to 0.5"); Phil Campbell (17 miles west, up to 0.75"); Russellville (25 miles northwest, up to 0.5").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 15 Moulton 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
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.
For this storm over Moulton, the NWS report log is empty — a common outcome, since ground reports only happen when someone witnesses the hail and takes the time to call it in. The detection record for the date lives in the radar maps above.
Below the severe threshold
What 0.5" hail means for Moulton roofs.
Radar signals under three-quarters of an inch stay below the National Weather Service severe threshold and generally indicate lower roof risk. Older or already-worn materials can still show effects, but radar alone cannot determine whether a specific roof was damaged.
