Evidence / storm surfaces

How Red Oak saw the hail — from two instruments

Jun 10, 2026 · Red Oak, IA

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
Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Red Oak, IA on Jun 10, 2026 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.

Max size 1.75"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 10, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Red Oak, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Jun 10, 2026 sits in Red Oak's hail record.

This was Red Oak's 11th recorded hail day, arriving 4 days after the Jun 6, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 2nd of the 17 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Red Oak at 1.75" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Jun 10, 2026 convective day was bigger than Red Oak: the same system put hail over 777 other tracked cities, 155 of them in Iowa. Nearest: Essex (7 miles south, up to 2.5"); Stanton (9 miles northeast, up to 1.5"); Villisca (10 miles east, up to 1.75").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 17 Red Oak 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.

High damage potential

What 1.75" hail means for Red Oak 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.

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 Sep 7, 2026.
