Evidence / storm surfaces
How Wheatland 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 Jun 21, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Wheatland, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Jun 21, 2026 sits in Wheatland's hail record.
This was Wheatland's 6th recorded hail day, arriving 4 days after the Jun 17, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 4th of the 7 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Wheatland at 1" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 21, 2026 convective day was bigger than Wheatland: the same system put hail over 415 other tracked cities, 22 of them in Indiana. Nearest: Washington (6 miles southeast, up to 1"); Vincennes (11 miles west, up to 1"); Bicknell (12 miles northwest, up to 0.5").

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.
For this storm over Wheatland, the NWS report log is empty — a common outcome, since ground reports only happen when someone witnesses the hail and takes the time to call it in. The detection record for the date lives in the radar maps above.
Damage-capable hail signal
What 1" hail means for Wheatland 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
$11M
Potential roof exposure — 900 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 5 jobs
- Illustrative work
- ~$75K
Close just 0.5% of the 900 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.
Names and phones for every home in the footprint: at most $189 on top of the $150 plan.
