How Iuka 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.
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.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Mar 11, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Iuka, so there is one map to show, not two.
Where Mar 11, 2026 sits in Iuka's hail record
This was Iuka's 2nd recorded hail day, arriving 13 days after the Feb 26, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 6th of the 7 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Iuka at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Mar 11, 2026 convective day was bigger than Iuka: the same system put hail over 41 other tracked cities, 1 of them in Mississippi. Nearest: Guys (24 miles northwest, up to 0.75"); Ramer (27 miles northwest, up to 0.5"); Florence (28 miles east, up to 0.5").
These maps are stills from Iuka's Mar 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 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.
Nobody on the ground filed a report over Iuka for this date, which says more about who was watching than about the storm: spotter reports only exist where there is an observer. The radar surfaces above carry the evidence for this one.
What 0.5" hail means for Iuka 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.
