Hail in Pratt · Jun 16, 2026
The estimated-size surface reached 3" aloft; NEXRAD logged no point detections over Pratt that day. At 3" — baseball — 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 Pratt saw the hail — from two instruments
Jun 16, 2026 · Pratt, KS
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-estimated hail size Surface resolved
Estimated size field Radar-estimated hail size over the swath. The model reports the biggest stone the storm could sustain in the air; what actually fell may have been smaller.
Max size
3"
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 16, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Pratt, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Jun 16, 2026 sits in Pratt's hail record.
This was Pratt's 8th recorded hail day, arriving 3 days after the Jun 13, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 2nd of the 18 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Pratt at 3" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 16, 2026 convective day was bigger than Pratt: the same system put hail over 225 other tracked cities, 30 of them in Kansas. Nearest: Byers (17 miles northwest, up to 3.5"); Coats (21 miles southwest, up to 2.75"); Medicine Lodge (26 miles south, up to 2.5").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 18 Pratt 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.

How the storm moved
Timing and place names from NOAA ground reports
Read from the arrival times and locations of the NOAA ground reports, not a radar-measured storm track.
Hail was reported over 18 minutes, from to .
Reports came from Coats, Cullison, and Byers — beyond Pratt itself.
Severe hail signal
What 3" hail means for Pratt 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.
467 homes × $12,000 avg. claim
Potential roof exposure
$5.6M
Potential roof exposure — 467 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 tells you where to look. Only an inspection confirms damage at an address. Last updated Sep 13, 2026.
