Two ways to read the storm

How Kenyon 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.

Only the NEXRAD radar-signature surface resolved for Jun 30, 2026 — the estimated-size swath had no hail signal to model for this storm, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Jun 30, 2026 sits in Kenyon's hail record

This was Kenyon's 2nd recorded hail day, arriving 44 days after the May 17, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 1st of the 3 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Kenyon at 1.25" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.

The Jun 30, 2026 convective day was bigger than Kenyon: the same system put hail over 720 other tracked cities, 67 of them in Minnesota. Nearest: Claremont (15 miles south, up to 0.5"); Zumbrota (16 miles northeast, up to 1.5"); Kasson (17 miles southeast, up to 0").

These maps are stills from Kenyon's Jun 30, 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.

The National Weather Service logged no spotter reports for this storm over Kenyon. That absence is ordinary — filing a report takes a person on the spot who saw the hail and phoned it in. What stands as the record for this date is the radar above, which caught the storm regardless.

Shingle-bruising hail

What 1.25" hail means for Kenyon roofs

Quarter-size and larger hail is where asphalt shingle damage starts in earnest: bruised mats and granule loss that homeowners can't see from the ground. Most people inside the footprint won't know their roof was hit until someone inspects it.

Other storms in Kenyon

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.
