Evidence / storm surfaces
How Wentworth 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.
Estimated size field 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 Aug 6, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Wentworth, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Aug 6, 2026 sits in Wentworth's hail record.
This was Wentworth's 6th recorded hail day, arriving 33 days after the Jul 4, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 5th of the 6 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Wentworth at 0.75" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Aug 6, 2026 convective day was bigger than Wentworth: the same system put hail over 461 other tracked cities, 44 of them in Missouri. Nearest: Granby (6 miles west, up to 0.75"); Sarcoxie (7 miles north, up to 0.75"); Mount Vernon (18 miles northeast, up to 0.75").

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.
For this storm over Wentworth, the NWS report log is empty — a common outcome, since ground reports only happen when someone witnesses the hail and takes the time to call it in. The detection record for the date lives in the radar maps above.
Near the severe threshold
What 0.75" hail means for Wentworth 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.
