Evidence / storm surfaces
How Amory saw the hail — from two instruments
Mar 9, 2026 · Amory, MS
Each storm gets two readings: the radar signatures NEXRAD recorded as the cells passed overhead, and a modeled estimate of hail size in the air. They are independent surfaces, so a mismatch between them is expected — and worth reading.
Radar-estimated hail size Surface resolved
Estimated size field Radar-estimated hail size over the swath. The model reports the biggest stone the storm could sustain in the air; what actually fell may have been smaller.
Max size
1.25"
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Mar 9, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Amory, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Mar 9, 2026 sits in Amory's hail record.
This was Amory's 2nd recorded hail day, arriving 11 days after the Feb 26, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 1st of the 8 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Amory at 1.25" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Mar 9, 2026 convective day was bigger than Amory: the same system put hail over 99 other tracked cities, 27 of them in Mississippi. Nearest: Greenwood Springs (11 miles east, up to 0.75"); Okolona (13 miles northwest, up to 2"); Aberdeen (14 miles south, up to 2").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 8 Amory storm dates on a live map — both surfaces, the reports, and a replay — and the same map is where you draw the swath. This page rebuilds nightly.

What 1.25" hail means for Amory roofs.
Quarter-size and larger hail can bruise asphalt mats, remove granules, and dent exposed soft metal. The mapped footprint identifies an inspection priority area — it does not identify which individual roofs, if any, sustained damage.

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 tells you where to look. Only an inspection confirms damage at an address. Last updated Aug 23, 2026.
