Two ways to read the storm

How Grygla saw the hail — from two instruments

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
Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Grygla, MN on Aug 2, 2026

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 1.5"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Aug 2, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Grygla, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Aug 2, 2026 sits in Grygla's hail record

This was Grygla's 8th recorded hail day, arriving 3 days after the Jul 30, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 2nd of the 8 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Grygla at 1.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Aug 2, 2026 convective day was bigger than Grygla: the same system put hail over 83 other tracked cities, 15 of them in Minnesota. Nearest: Gatzke (10 miles west, up to 1.5"); Middle River (21 miles west, up to 1.25"); Roseau (22 miles north, up to 0.75").

These maps are stills from Grygla's Aug 2, 2026 storm. In the Overview app the same surfaces are live — radar updating in real time, radar-estimated hail size as it forms, and NWS spotter reports pinned where they're filed — with a radar replay you can scrub back over any past day.

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.

What 1.5" hail means for Grygla roofs

At an inch and a half, hail cracks shingles, strips granules down to the mat, and dents gutters, vents, and siding. A footprint like this typically produces a wave of insurance claims — and the contractor who reaches the homeowner first usually gets the inspection.

Other storms in Grygla

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 surfaces are detections and estimates, not confirmed damage. Last updated Aug 3, 2026.
