Two ways to read the storm

How Akron 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.

Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Akron, CO on Jun 20, 2026 — Maximum hail size as estimated from radar aloft. Treat it as the storm's ceiling — the largest supportable stone — rather than a ground measurement.

Max size 0.5"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 20, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Akron, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Jun 20, 2026 sits in Akron's hail record

This was Akron's 7th recorded hail day, arriving 12 days after the Jun 8, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 18th of the 18 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Akron at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Jun 20, 2026 convective day was bigger than Akron: the same system put hail over 298 other tracked cities, 17 of them in Colorado. Nearest: Yuma (24 miles east, up to 1.25"); Woodrow (36 miles southwest, up to 1.25"); Eckley (40 miles southeast, up to 1.5").

These maps are stills from Akron's Jun 20, 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.

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.

Nobody on the ground filed a report over Akron 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.

Below the severe threshold

What 0.5" hail means for Akron 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

$240K

Potential roof exposure — 20 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.
