Evidence / storm surfaces
How Rose Creek saw the hail — from two instruments
Each storm gets two readings: the radar signatures NEXRAD recorded as the cells passed overhead, and a modeled estimate of hail size in the air. They are independent surfaces, so a mismatch between them is expected — and worth reading.
Estimated size field Radar-estimated hail size over the swath. The model reports the biggest stone the storm could sustain in the air; what actually fell may have been smaller.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Sep 1, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Rose Creek, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Sep 1, 2026 sits in Rose Creek's hail record.
This was Rose Creek's 6th recorded hail day, arriving 55 days after the Jul 8, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 5th of the 6 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Rose Creek at 0.75" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Sep 1, 2026 convective day was bigger than Rose Creek: the same system put hail over 362 other tracked cities, 56 of them in Minnesota. Nearest: Adams (5 miles east, up to 0.75"); Austin (10 miles west, up to 0.75"); Taopi (10 miles east, up to 0.75").

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 Rose Creek 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.
Near the severe threshold
What 0.75" hail means for Rose Creek roofs.
A signal this size sits near the National Weather Service severe threshold. Aging shingles and soft metals such as vents, flashing, and gutters may be more vulnerable; roof age, wind, and material condition all matter, and only an inspection can confirm damage.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$5.1M
Potential roof exposure — 428 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 2 jobs
- Illustrative work
- ~$30K
Close just 0.5% of the 428 homes in this footprint at the average $15,000 roof job. Illustrative math, not a projection — your results depend on your outreach and how the market responds.
Claim window
September 2028
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around September 2028 — the window to reach these homeowners while it's still open. Deadlines vary by policy and state.
Names and phones for every home in the footprint: at most $90 on top of the $150 plan.
