How Carlisle saw the hail — from two instruments
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
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.

0.5"
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 12, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Carlisle, so there is one map to show, not two.
Where Jun 12, 2026 sits in Carlisle's hail record
This was Carlisle's 4th recorded hail day, arriving 12 days after the May 31, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 3rd of the 5 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Carlisle at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 12, 2026 convective day was bigger than Carlisle: the same system put hail over 293 other tracked cities, 6 of them in Arkansas. Nearest: Hazen (6 miles east, up to 0.5"); Scott (17 miles west, up to 0.5"); Marvell (48 miles east, up to 0.75").
These maps are stills from Carlisle's Jun 12, 2026 storm. In the Overview app the same surfaces are live — radar updating in real time, radar-estimated hail size as it forms, and NWS spotter reports pinned where they're filed — with a radar replay you can scrub back over any past day.
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.

What 0.5" hail means for Carlisle roofs
Hail under three-quarters of an inch stays below the National Weather Service severe threshold and rarely breaks shingles outright. But repeated small-hail events accelerate granule loss and shorten roof life — on older roofs, it's still worth a conversation.
What this storm is worth to a roofer
$72K
Potential roof exposure — 6 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage. Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around June 2028 — the window to reach these homeowners while it's still open. Deadlines vary by policy and state.

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 surfaces are detections and estimates,
not confirmed damage. Last updated Aug 3, 2026.
