Evidence / storm surfaces
How Greenfield 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.
Radar signature field 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.
Estimated size field 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.
The storm in context
Where Jun 5, 2026 sits in Greenfield's hail record.
This was Greenfield's 7th recorded hail day, arriving 18 days after the May 18, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 1st of the 10 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Greenfield at 1.75" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.
The Jun 5, 2026 convective day was bigger than Greenfield: the same system put hail over 440 other tracked cities, 66 of them in Iowa. Nearest: Orient (9 miles southwest, up to 1.75"); Macksburg (12 miles southeast, up to 1"); Bridgewater (16 miles west, up to 2.5").

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.
Wind reports
1 reportHigh damage potential
What 1.75" hail means for Greenfield roofs.
Hail around an inch and a half is capable of cracking shingles, stripping granules, and denting gutters, vents, and siding. Risk is usually greatest near the strongest radar signal, but property-level damage still requires an on-site inspection.
