How Washington 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.
Where NEXRAD flagged hail as the storm passed — point signatures from the radar, which indicate hail overhead rather than confirm what landed.
Only the NEXRAD radar-signature surface resolved for Apr 24, 2026 — the estimated-size swath had no hail signal to model for this storm, so there is one map to show, not two.
Where Apr 24, 2026 sits in Washington's hail record
This was Washington's 2nd recorded hail day, arriving 40 days after the Mar 15, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 5th of the 5 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Washington at 0" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Apr 24, 2026 convective day was bigger than Washington: the same system put hail over 345 other tracked cities, 37 of them in Arkansas. Nearest: Fulton (7 miles southeast, up to 0"); Mc Caskill (11 miles northeast, up to 0"); Hope (15 miles southeast, up to 1.5").
These maps are stills from Washington's Apr 24, 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.
Nobody on the ground filed a report over Washington for this date, which says more about who was watching than about the storm: spotter reports only exist where there is an observer. The radar surfaces above carry the evidence for this one.
What 0" hail means for Washington 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.
