How Moundridge 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.
NEXRAD radar signatures
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 Mar 1, 2026 — the estimated-size swath had no hail signal to model for this storm, so there is one map to show, not two.
Where Mar 1, 2026 sits in Moundridge's hail record
This was Moundridge's 1st recorded hail day — the first hail day in our records for the city. By severity it ranks 7th of the 10 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Moundridge at 0.5" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.
The Mar 1, 2026 convective day was bigger than Moundridge: the same system put hail over 24 other tracked cities, 11 of them in Kansas. Nearest: Mcpherson (18 miles north, up to 0.5"); Hillsboro (22 miles northeast, up to 1.75"); Lindsborg (28 miles north, up to 0.5").
These maps are stills from Moundridge's Mar 1, 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.
Hail reports
1 reportWhat 0.5" hail means for Moundridge 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.
What this storm is worth to a roofer
$1.7M
Potential roof exposure — 139 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.

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.
