Evidence / storm surfaces
How Canby saw the hail — from two instruments
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 signature field NEXRAD's hail signatures for this storm: the spots the radar detected from above. A detection overhead is not the same thing as a confirmed stone below.
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.
The storm in context
Where Jul 4, 2026 sits in Canby's hail record.
This was Canby's 5th recorded hail day, arriving 2 days after the Jul 2, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 6th of the 6 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Canby at 0" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jul 4, 2026 convective day was bigger than Canby: the same system put hail over 2,035 other tracked cities, 128 of them in Minnesota. Nearest: Ivanhoe (7 miles south, up to 1"); Arco (15 miles south, up to 2"); Lynd (24 miles southeast, up to 2").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 6 Canby 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
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.
Nobody on the ground filed a report over Canby for this date, which says more about who was watching than about the storm: spotter reports only exist where there is an observer. The radar surfaces above carry the evidence for this one.
Below the severe threshold
What 0" hail means for Canby 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.
