Evidence / storm surfaces
How Mc Cracken 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 30, 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

This was Mc Cracken's 8th recorded hail day, arriving 27 days after the Jun 3, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 9th of the 10 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Mc Cracken at 0" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 30, 2026 convective day was bigger than Mc Cracken: the same system put hail over 720 other tracked cities, 42 of them in Kansas. Nearest: Brownell (13 miles west, up to 0"); Arnold (30 miles west, up to 1"); Wakeeney (30 miles northwest, up to 0").

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.
Nobody on the ground filed a report over Mc Cracken 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.
Below the severe threshold
What 0" hail means for Mc Cracken roofs.
Radar signals under three-quarters of an inch stay below the National Weather Service severe threshold and generally indicate lower roof risk. Older or already-worn materials can still show effects, but radar alone cannot determine whether a specific roof was damaged.
