Independent storm reports filed with the NWS.
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.
Maximum hail size as estimated from radar aloft. Treat it as the storm's ceiling — the largest supportable stone — rather than a ground measurement.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 11, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Bethany, so there is one map to show, not two.
This was Bethany's 6th recorded hail day, arriving 1 day after the Jun 10, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 4th of the 8 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Bethany at 1" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 11, 2026 convective day was bigger than Bethany: the same system put hail over 648 other tracked cities, 136 of them in Missouri. Nearest: New Hampton (6 miles northwest, up to 1.25"); Ridgeway (10 miles northeast, up to 1"); Martinsville (12 miles northwest, up to 1.25").
These maps are stills from Bethany's Jun 11, 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.
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.

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.
