Evidence / storm surfaces
How Donovan 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 signature field Where NEXRAD flagged hail as the storm passed — point signatures from the radar, which indicate hail overhead rather than confirm what landed.
Only the NEXRAD radar-signature surface resolved for Jun 5, 2026 — the estimated-size swath had no hail signal to model for this storm, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Jun 5, 2026 sits in Donovan's hail record.
This was Donovan's 2nd recorded hail day, arriving 53 days after the Apr 13, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 3rd of the 3 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Donovan at 0" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 5, 2026 convective day was bigger than Donovan: the same system put hail over 440 other tracked cities, 50 of them in Illinois. Nearest: Morocco (5 miles east, up to 0"); Martinton (10 miles west, up to 0"); Earl Park (15 miles south, up to 1").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 3 Donovan 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.
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.
Nobody on the ground filed a report over Donovan 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.
Below the severe threshold
What 0" hail means for Donovan roofs.
Radar signals under three-quarters of an inch stay below the National Weather Service severe threshold and generally indicate lower roof risk. Older or already-worn materials can still show effects, but radar alone cannot determine whether a specific roof was damaged.
