Evidence / storm surfaces
How Marseilles saw the hail — from two instruments
Each storm gets two readings: the radar signatures NEXRAD recorded as the cells passed overhead, and a modeled estimate of hail size in the air. They are independent surfaces, so a mismatch between them is expected — and worth reading.
Estimated size field Radar-estimated hail size over the swath. The model reports the biggest stone the storm could sustain in the air; what actually fell may have been smaller.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Mar 10, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Marseilles, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Mar 10, 2026 sits in Marseilles's hail record.
This was Marseilles's 1st recorded hail day — the first hail day in our records for the city. By severity it ranks 3rd of the 9 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Marseilles at 1" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Mar 10, 2026 convective day was bigger than Marseilles: the same system put hail over 470 other tracked cities, 100 of them in Illinois. Nearest: Seneca (5 miles east, up to 1"); Serena (7 miles north, up to 1.25"); Ottawa (8 miles west, up to 1").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 9 Marseilles 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.
The National Weather Service logged no spotter reports for this storm over Marseilles. That absence is ordinary — filing a report takes a person on the spot who saw the hail and phoned it in. What stands as the record for this date is the radar above, which caught the storm regardless.
Damage-capable hail signal
What 1" hail means for Marseilles roofs.
Quarter-size and larger hail can bruise asphalt mats, remove granules, and dent exposed soft metal. The mapped footprint identifies an inspection priority area — it does not identify which individual roofs, if any, sustained damage.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$22M
Potential roof exposure — 1,796 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 9 jobs
- Illustrative work
- ~$135K
Close just 0.5% of the 1,796 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
March 2028
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around March 2028 — the window to reach these homeowners while it's still open. Deadlines vary by policy and state.
Names and phones for every home in the footprint: at most $377 on top of the $150 plan.
