Two instruments, one storm: NEXRAD logs the point signatures it detected overhead, while the estimated-size surface models how large the hail aloft could have grown. Agreement between them is not guaranteed — the gaps are where the model ran ahead of, or behind, the detections.
Radar-estimated maximum hail size across the swath, modeled from radar aloft. It reflects the biggest stone the storm could support, which may differ from what actually fell.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 10, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Villisca, so there is one map to show, not two.
This was Villisca's 10th recorded hail day, arriving 23 days after the May 18, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 2nd of the 11 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Villisca at 1.75" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 10, 2026 convective day was bigger than Villisca: the same system put hail over 777 other tracked cities, 155 of them in Iowa. Nearest: Clarinda (7 miles south, up to 2.5"); Stanton (7 miles north, up to 1.5"); Nodaway (8 miles east, up to 1.75").
These maps are stills from Villisca's Jun 10, 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.
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.

Reports came from Hepburn and Stanton — beyond Villisca itself.
At an inch and a half, hail cracks shingles, strips granules down to the mat, and dents gutters, vents, and siding. A footprint like this typically produces a wave of insurance claims — and the contractor who reaches the homeowner first usually gets the inspection.
