Evidence / storm surfaces
How Wallace saw the hail — from two instruments
Jun 20, 2026 · Wallace, KS
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.
Radar-estimated hail size Surface resolved
Estimated size field Maximum hail size as estimated from radar aloft. Treat it as the storm's ceiling — the largest supportable stone — rather than a ground measurement.
Max size
1.25"
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 20, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Wallace, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Jun 20, 2026 sits in Wallace's hail record.
This was Wallace's 3rd recorded hail day, arriving 8 days after the Jun 12, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 4th of the 9 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Wallace at 1.25" — radar-estimated size aloft.

Damage-capable hail signal
What 1.25" hail means for Wallace roofs.
Quarter-size and larger hail can bruise asphalt mats, remove granules, and dent exposed soft metal. The mapped footprint identifies an inspection priority area — it does not identify which individual roofs, if any, sustained 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 Aug 31, 2026.
