Two ways to read the storm

How New Site 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.

NEXRAD's hail signatures for this storm: the spots the radar detected from above. A detection overhead is not the same thing as a confirmed stone below.

Only the NEXRAD radar-signature surface resolved for Apr 27, 2026 — the estimated-size swath had no hail signal to model for this storm, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Apr 27, 2026 sits in New Site's hail record

This was New Site's 3rd recorded hail day, arriving 43 days after the Mar 15, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 6th of the 6 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over New Site at 0" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Apr 27, 2026 convective day was bigger than New Site: the same system put hail over 1,188 other tracked cities, 32 of them in Mississippi. Nearest: Tishomingo (9 miles northeast, up to 1"); Mantachie (15 miles south, up to 1"); Saltillo (18 miles west, up to 0").

These maps are stills from New Site's Apr 27, 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.

No ground reports were filed with the National Weather Service for this storm over New Site. That is common: a report depends on someone being there to see it and take the time to call it in. The radar surfaces above are the record here — the storm was detected from above even though no one on the ground logged it.

Below the severe threshold

What 0" hail means for New Site 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.

Other storms in New Site

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.
