Evidence / storm surfaces
How Worthington saw the hail — from two instruments
The maps here read the same storm from two angles — point detections from NEXRAD, and modeled hail size aloft. Where the two disagree is informative: it marks where estimated size outran the signatures, or trailed them.
Radar signature field Where NEXRAD flagged hail as the storm passed — point signatures from the radar, which indicate hail overhead rather than confirm what landed.
Estimated size field The modeled maximum hail size across the swath, derived from radar aloft — the largest stone the storm could have supported, which is not necessarily what reached the ground.
The storm in context
Where Aug 3, 2026 sits in Worthington's hail record.
This was Worthington's 8th recorded hail day, arriving 32 days after the Jul 2, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 8th of the 9 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Worthington at 0.75" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Aug 3, 2026 convective day was bigger than Worthington: the same system put hail over 172 other tracked cities, 71 of them in Minnesota. Nearest: Brewster (9 miles northeast, up to 0.5"); Adrian (19 miles west, up to 0.75"); Little Rock (20 miles southwest, up to 1").

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 Worthington 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 Worthington 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.

What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$31M
Potential roof exposure — 2,613 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 13 jobs
- Illustrative work
- ~$195K
Close just 0.5% of the 2,613 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
August 2028
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around August 2028 — the window to reach these homeowners while it's still open. Deadlines vary by policy and state.
