Two ways to read the storm

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.

Radar-estimated hail size
Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Kinmundy, IL on Jun 21, 2026

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.

Max size 0.75"

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"); Vernon (11 miles west, up to 0.75"); Edgewood (13 miles northeast, up to 0.75").

These maps are stills from Kinmundy's Jun 21, 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.

Near the severe threshold

What 0.75" hail means for Kinmundy roofs

Hail this size sits right at the edge of the National Weather Service severe threshold. Newer roofs usually shrug it off, but aging or already-worn shingles can bruise, and soft metals — vents, flashing, gutters — often show the first dents.

Other storms in Kinmundy

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 surfaces are detections and estimates, not confirmed damage. Last updated Aug 3, 2026.
