How Jonesville saw the hail — from two instruments

Mar 11, 2026 · Jonesville, LA

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
Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Jonesville, LA on Mar 11, 2026 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 0.5"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Mar 11, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Jonesville, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Mar 11, 2026 sits in Jonesville's hail record.

This was Jonesville's 2nd recorded hail day, arriving 4 days after the Mar 7, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 14th of the 15 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Jonesville at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Mar 11, 2026 convective day was bigger than Jonesville: the same system put hail over 41 other tracked cities, 1 of them in Louisiana. Nearest: Converse (109 miles west, up to 0.5"); Shelbyville (122 miles west, up to 0.5"); San Augustine (133 miles west, up to 0.5").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 15 Jonesville 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.

Ground reports

What people on the ground reported

No reports filed with the NWS

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.

No ground reports were filed with the National Weather Service for this storm over Jonesville. That is common: a report depends on someone being there to see it and take the time to call it in. The radar surfaces above are the record here — the storm was detected from above even though no one on the ground logged it.

Below the severe threshold

What 0.5" hail means for Jonesville 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.

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 8, 2026.
