Two ways to read the storm

How Fredonia saw the hail — from two instruments

Two instruments, one storm: NEXRAD logs the point signatures it detected overhead, while the estimated-size surface models how large the hail aloft could have grown. Agreement between them is not guaranteed — the gaps are where the model ran ahead of, or behind, the detections.

Radar-estimated hail size
Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Fredonia, KS on Jun 13, 2026

Radar-estimated maximum hail size across the swath, modeled from radar aloft. It reflects the biggest stone the storm could support, which may differ from what actually fell.

Max size 0.5"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 13, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Fredonia, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Jun 13, 2026 sits in Fredonia's hail record

This was Fredonia's 12th recorded hail day, arriving 13 days after the May 31, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 14th of the 15 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Fredonia at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Jun 13, 2026 convective day was bigger than Fredonia: the same system put hail over 587 other tracked cities, 167 of them in Kansas. Nearest: Altoona (9 miles southeast, up to 0.5"); Benedict (9 miles northeast, up to 0.5"); Howard (9 miles southwest, up to 0.5").

These maps are stills from Fredonia's Jun 13, 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 Fredonia. 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 0.5" hail means for Fredonia 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 Fredonia

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.
