How Ridgeway saw the hail — from two instruments
Two instruments, one storm: NEXRAD logs the point signatures it detected overhead, while the estimated-size surface models how large the hail aloft could have grown. Agreement between them is not guaranteed — the gaps are where the model ran ahead of, or behind, the detections.
Radar-estimated maximum hail size across the swath, modeled from radar aloft. It reflects the biggest stone the storm could support, which may differ from what actually fell.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 11, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Ridgeway, so there is one map to show, not two.
Where Jun 11, 2026 sits in Ridgeway's hail record
This was Ridgeway's 7th recorded hail day, arriving 1 day after the Jun 10, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 3rd of the 7 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Ridgeway at 1" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 11, 2026 convective day was bigger than Ridgeway: the same system put hail over 648 other tracked cities, 136 of them in Missouri. Nearest: Bethany (10 miles southwest, up to 1"); Eagleville (11 miles north, up to 1.5"); Blythedale (12 miles northeast, up to 1.5").
These maps are stills from Ridgeway'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.

What 1" hail means for Ridgeway 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.
