Two ways to read the storm

How Como saw the hail — from two instruments

We map this storm two ways: the NEXRAD radar signatures the storm produced overhead, and the radar-estimated size of the hail in the air. The two surfaces don’t have to match — where they diverge is where estimated size aloft ran ahead of, or behind, what the signatures caught.

NEXRAD radar signatures
NEXRAD radar-signature map of the hail storm over Como, MS on Jul 1, 2026

NEXRAD radar signatures — the point detections the storm produced overhead. A signature is where the radar saw hail, not a confirmed stone on the ground.

The storm in context

Where Jul 1, 2026 sits in Como's hail record

This was Como's 7th recorded hail day, arriving 18 days after the Jun 13, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 5th of the 10 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Como at 1" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.

The Jul 1, 2026 convective day was bigger than Como: the same system put hail over 1,147 other tracked cities, 122 of them in Mississippi. Nearest: Sardis (13 miles southeast, up to 1"); Senatobia (13 miles northeast, up to 0"); Batesville (14 miles south, up to 1.75").

These maps are stills from Como's Jul 1, 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.

The National Weather Service logged no spotter reports for this storm over Como. 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.

Shingle-bruising hail

What 1" hail means for Como 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.

What this storm is worth to a roofer

$300K

Potential roof exposure — 25 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around July 2028 — the window to reach these homeowners while it's still open. Deadlines vary by policy and state.

Other storms in Como

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.
