Two ways to read the storm

How Glenallen 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-estimated hail size
Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Glenallen, MO on Apr 16, 2026

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.

Max size 1.25"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Apr 16, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Glenallen, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Apr 16, 2026 sits in Glenallen's hail record

This was Glenallen's 2nd recorded hail day, arriving 43 days after the Mar 4, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 1st of the 5 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Glenallen at 1.25" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Apr 16, 2026 convective day was bigger than Glenallen: the same system put hail over 151 other tracked cities, 67 of them in Missouri. Nearest: Marquand (9 miles northwest, up to 1.25"); Zalma (15 miles south, up to 1.25"); Patton (15 miles north, up to 0.75").

These maps are stills from Glenallen's Apr 16, 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.

Nobody on the ground filed a report over Glenallen 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.

Shingle-bruising hail

What 1.25" hail means for Glenallen 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 Glenallen

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.
