Two ways to read the storm

How Yazoo City saw the hail — from two instruments

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.

NEXRAD radar signatures

The point detections NEXRAD recorded overhead. Each signature marks where the radar saw hail aloft — it is a detection, not a stone measured on the ground.

Where Mar 15, 2026 sits in Yazoo City's hail record

This was Yazoo City's 1st recorded hail day — the first hail day in our records for the city. By severity it ranks 12th of the 12 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Yazoo City at 0" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Mar 15, 2026 convective day was bigger than Yazoo City: the same system put hail over 695 other tracked cities, 64 of them in Mississippi. Nearest: Satartia (22 miles south, up to 0"); Hollandale (25 miles northwest, up to 1"); Belzoni (28 miles north, up to 1").

These maps are stills from Yazoo City's Mar 15, 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.

Nobody on the ground filed a report over Yazoo City 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.

Below the severe threshold

What 0" hail means for Yazoo City 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 Yazoo City

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.
