Hail in Fowler Jun 22, 2026

Hit 42 days ago

The radar-estimated size surface caught this storm, reaching 2.25" aloft. NEXRAD logged no point detections over Fowler this day. At 2.25" — tennis ball — this is severe, roof-replacing hail: close to every roof inside the footprint becomes a claim candidate.

A tornado was also reported to the National Weather Service during this storm — see the ground reports below.

Two ways to read the storm

How Fowler 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
Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Fowler, CO on Jun 22, 2026

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.

Max size 2.25"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 22, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Fowler, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Jun 22, 2026 sits in Fowler's hail record

This was Fowler's 2nd recorded hail day, arriving 24 days after the May 29, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 1st of the 4 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Fowler at 2.25" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Jun 22, 2026 convective day was bigger than Fowler: the same system put hail over 258 other tracked cities, 22 of them in Colorado. Nearest: Manzanola (11 miles east, up to 1"); Olney Springs (13 miles northeast, up to 2"); Boone (15 miles north, up to 2.25").

These maps are stills from Fowler's Jun 22, 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.

Severe, roof-replacing hail

What 2.25" hail means for Fowler roofs

Two-inch-plus hail punctures shingles, breaks skylights and windows, and dents anything soft. In the core of a footprint like this, close to every roof is a candidate for an insurance claim. Speed decides who writes those jobs.

What this storm is worth to a roofer

Other storms in Fowler

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.
