Hail in Byers · Jun 24, 2026
The estimated-size surface reached 2" aloft; NEXRAD logged no point detections over Byers that day. At 2" — tennis ball — this is a severe hail signal associated with roof damage. Open it on the live map to see the swath over the streets.

Evidence / storm surfaces
How Byers saw the hail — from two instruments
Jun 24, 2026 · Byers, CO
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 Surface resolved
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 Jun 24, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Byers, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Jun 24, 2026 sits in Byers's hail record.
This was Byers's 7th recorded hail day, arriving 3 days after the Jun 21, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 2nd of the 17 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Byers at 2" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 24, 2026 convective day was bigger than Byers: the same system put hail over 383 other tracked cities, 39 of them in Colorado. Nearest: Deer Trail (7 miles south, up to 2"); Strasburg (16 miles northwest, up to 1.5"); Bennett (20 miles west, up to 0.5").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 17 Byers 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.

Severe hail signal
What 2" hail means for Byers roofs.
Two-inch-plus hail is capable of puncturing shingles, breaking skylights or windows, and heavily denting soft materials. The strongest radar bands warrant prompt inspection, but neither the signal nor the footprint confirms damage at a specific address.

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 Aug 27, 2026.
