Two ways to read the storm

How Argos 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.

Where NEXRAD flagged hail as the storm passed — point signatures from the radar, which indicate hail overhead rather than confirm what landed.

Max size 0" Detections 0

Only the NEXRAD radar-signature surface resolved for Jul 20, 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 Jul 20, 2026 sits in Argos's hail record

This was Argos's 3rd recorded hail day, arriving 17 days after the Jul 3, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 3rd of the 3 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Argos at 0" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Jul 20, 2026 convective day was bigger than Argos: the same system put hail over 553 other tracked cities, 15 of them in Indiana. Nearest: Mentone (10 miles east, up to 1"); Rochester (14 miles south, up to 0"); Silver Lake (17 miles southeast, up to 0").

These maps are stills from Argos's Jul 20, 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.

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 Argos. 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.

Below the severe threshold

What 0" hail means for Argos roofs

Hail under three-quarters of an inch stays below the National Weather Service severe threshold and rarely breaks shingles outright. But repeated small-hail events accelerate granule loss and shorten roof life — on older roofs, it's still worth a conversation.

Other storms in Argos

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.
