Evidence / storm surfaces
How Kinmundy 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.
Estimated size field The modeled maximum hail size across the swath, derived from radar aloft — the largest stone the storm could have supported, which is not necessarily what reached the ground.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 21, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Kinmundy, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Jun 21, 2026 sits in Kinmundy's hail record.
This was Kinmundy's 6th recorded hail day, arriving 36 days after the May 16, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 2nd of the 8 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Kinmundy at 0.75" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 21, 2026 convective day was bigger than Kinmundy: the same system put hail over 415 other tracked cities, 27 of them in Illinois. Nearest: Farina (6 miles northeast, up to 0.75"); Edgewood (13 miles northeast, up to 0.75"); Vernon (17 miles west, up to 0.75").

Storm forensics
How the storm moved
Read from the arrival times and locations of the NOAA ground reports, not a radar-measured storm track.
Hail was reported over 16 minutes, from to .
Reports came from Alma, Farina, and Stephen Forbes St — beyond Kinmundy itself.
Near the severe threshold
What 0.75" hail means for Kinmundy roofs.
A signal this size sits near the National Weather Service severe threshold. Aging shingles and soft metals such as vents, flashing, and gutters may be more vulnerable; roof age, wind, and material condition all matter, and only an inspection can confirm damage.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$10M
Potential roof exposure — 866 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 4 jobs
- Illustrative work
- ~$60K
Close just 0.5% of the 866 homes in this footprint at the average $15,000 roof job. Illustrative math, not a projection — your results depend on your outreach and how the market responds.
Claim window
June 2028
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around June 2028 — the window to reach these homeowners while it's still open. Deadlines vary by policy and state.
