How Adrian saw the hail — from two instruments

Aug 10, 2026 · Adrian, MI

Two instruments, one storm: NEXRAD logs the point signatures it detected overhead, while the estimated-size surface models how large the hail aloft could have grown. Agreement between them is not guaranteed — the gaps are where the model ran ahead of, or behind, the detections.

Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Adrian, MI on Aug 10, 2026 Estimated size field

Radar-estimated maximum hail size across the swath, modeled from radar aloft. It reflects the biggest stone the storm could support, which may differ from what actually fell.

Max size 0.5"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Aug 10, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Adrian, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Aug 10, 2026 sits in Adrian's hail record.

This was Adrian's 3rd recorded hail day, arriving 98 days after the May 4, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 3rd of the 3 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Adrian at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Aug 10, 2026 convective day was bigger than Adrian: the same system put hail over 616 other tracked cities, 12 of them in Michigan. Nearest: Jasper (9 miles southeast, up to 1"); Lyons (14 miles south, up to 1.25"); Fayette (16 miles southwest, up to 1.25").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 3 Adrian 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.

Below the severe threshold

What 0.5" hail means for Adrian 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.

1,825 homes × $12,000 avg. claim

Potential roof exposure

$22M

Potential roof exposure — 1,825 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 Aug 11, 2026.
