Evidence / storm surfaces
How Yorktown 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.
Radar signature field The point detections NEXRAD recorded overhead. Each signature marks where the radar saw hail aloft — it is a detection, not a stone measured on the ground.
Only the NEXRAD radar-signature surface resolved for Jun 6, 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 Jun 6, 2026 sits in Yorktown's hail record.
This was Yorktown's 3rd recorded hail day, arriving 72 days after the Mar 26, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 4th of the 6 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Yorktown at 0.75" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.
The Jun 6, 2026 convective day was bigger than Yorktown: the same system put hail over 447 other tracked cities, 34 of them in Indiana. Nearest: Alexandria (9 miles northwest, up to 0.5"); Marion (21 miles north, up to 1.25"); Pennville (30 miles northeast, up to 0.75").

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 Yorktown. 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.
Near the severe threshold
What 0.75" hail means for Yorktown roofs.
A signal this size sits near the National Weather Service severe threshold. Aging shingles and soft metals such as vents, flashing, and gutters may be more vulnerable; roof age, wind, and material condition all matter, and only an inspection can confirm damage.
