Hail in Alma · Jun 13, 2026
The estimated-size surface reached 2.25" aloft; NEXRAD logged no point detections over Alma that day. At 2.25" — tennis ball — this is a severe hail signal associated with roof damage. Open it on the live map to see the swath over the streets.

Evidence / storm surfaces
How Alma 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.
Estimated size field 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.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 13, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Alma, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Jun 13, 2026 sits in Alma's hail record.
This was Alma's 10th recorded hail day, arriving 5 days after the Jun 8, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 5th of the 18 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Alma at 2.25" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 13, 2026 convective day was bigger than Alma: the same system put hail over 587 other tracked cities, 167 of them in Kansas. Nearest: Alta Vista (7 miles south, up to 2.25"); Manhattan (11 miles northwest, up to 2.25"); Dwight (13 miles southwest, up to 1.75").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 18 Alma 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.
No ground reports were filed with the National Weather Service for this storm over Alma. That is common: a report depends on someone being there to see it and take the time to call it in. The radar surfaces above are the record here — the storm was detected from above even though no one on the ground logged it.
Severe hail signal
What 2.25" hail means for Alma roofs.
Two-inch-plus hail is capable of puncturing shingles, breaking skylights or windows, and heavily denting soft materials. The strongest radar bands warrant prompt inspection, but neither the signal nor the footprint confirms damage at a specific address.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$25M
Potential roof exposure — 2,122 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 11 jobs
- Illustrative work
- ~$165K
Close just 0.5% of the 2,122 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 $446 on top of the $150 plan.
