Hail in Hope Jun 10, 2026
The radar-estimated size surface caught this storm, reaching 2" aloft. NEXRAD logged no point detections over Hope this day. At 2" — tennis ball — this is severe, roof-replacing hail: close to every roof inside the footprint becomes a claim candidate.

How Hope saw the hail — from two instruments
We map this storm two ways: the NEXRAD radar signatures the storm produced overhead, and the radar-estimated size of the hail in the air. The two surfaces don’t have to match — where they diverge is where estimated size aloft ran ahead of, or behind, what the signatures caught.
Maximum hail size as estimated from radar aloft. Treat it as the storm's ceiling — the largest supportable stone — rather than a ground measurement.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 10, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Hope, so there is one map to show, not two.
Where Jun 10, 2026 sits in Hope's hail record
This was Hope's 14th recorded hail day, arriving 2 days after the Jun 8, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 5th of the 16 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Hope at 2" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 10, 2026 convective day was bigger than Hope: the same system put hail over 777 other tracked cities, 61 of them in Kansas. Nearest: Woodbine (5 miles east, up to 1.5"); Enterprise (7 miles north, up to 2"); Chapman (9 miles northeast, up to 1.5").
These maps are stills from Hope's Jun 10, 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.
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.
Nobody on the ground filed a report over Hope for this date, which says more about who was watching than about the storm: spotter reports only exist where there is an observer. The radar surfaces above carry the evidence for this one.
What 2" hail means for Hope roofs
Two-inch-plus hail punctures shingles, breaks skylights and windows, and dents anything soft. In the core of a footprint like this, close to every roof is a candidate for an insurance claim. Speed decides who writes those jobs.
