How Grover saw the hail — from two instruments
Each storm gets two readings: the radar signatures NEXRAD recorded as the cells passed overhead, and a modeled estimate of hail size in the air. They are independent surfaces, so a mismatch between them is expected — and worth reading.
The point detections NEXRAD recorded overhead. Each signature marks where the radar saw hail aloft — it is a detection, not a stone measured on the ground.
Radar-estimated hail size over the swath. The model reports the biggest stone the storm could sustain in the air; what actually fell may have been smaller.

This was Grover's 6th recorded hail day, arriving 5 days after the Jun 26, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 4th of the 9 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Grover at 2.5" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.
The Jul 1, 2026 convective day was bigger than Grover: the same system put hail over 1,147 other tracked cities, 22 of them in Colorado. Nearest: Briggsdale (17 miles south, up to 2"); New Raymer (24 miles east, up to 2.5"); Eaton (29 miles southwest, up to 1.75").
These maps are stills from Grover's Jul 1, 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 Grover 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 2.5" hail means for Grover 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.
