How Milan 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.
Where NEXRAD flagged hail as the storm passed — point signatures from the radar, which indicate hail overhead rather than confirm what landed.
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.
Where Jul 20, 2026 sits in Milan's hail record
This was Milan's 10th recorded hail day, arriving 39 days after the Jun 11, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 7th of the 10 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Milan at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jul 20, 2026 convective day was bigger than Milan: the same system put hail over 553 other tracked cities, 40 of them in Missouri. Nearest: Lucerne (9 miles northwest, up to 1"); Pollock (9 miles northwest, up to 0.75"); Green City (9 miles southeast, up to 0.5").
These maps are stills from Milan's Jul 20, 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.
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 Milan. 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.
What 0.5" hail means for Milan roofs
Hail under three-quarters of an inch stays below the National Weather Service severe threshold and rarely breaks shingles outright. But repeated small-hail events accelerate granule loss and shorten roof life — on older roofs, it's still worth a conversation.
