Two ways to read the storm

How Reddick 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 Reddick, IL on Mar 10, 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 1.5"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Mar 10, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Reddick, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Mar 10, 2026 sits in Reddick's hail record

This was Reddick's 1st recorded hail day — the first hail day in our records for the city. By severity it ranks 1st of the 4 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Reddick at 1.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Mar 10, 2026 convective day was bigger than Reddick: the same system put hail over 470 other tracked cities, 100 of them in Illinois. Nearest: Cabery (7 miles south, up to 1.5"); Herscher (10 miles southeast, up to 2"); Cullom (14 miles south, up to 1.25").

These maps are stills from Reddick's Mar 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.

Widespread claimable damage

What 1.5" hail means for Reddick roofs

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.

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 2, 2026.
