How Dickinson saw the hail — from two instruments

Jun 27, 2026 · Dickinson, ND

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.

Where NEXRAD flagged hail as the storm passed — point signatures from the radar, which indicate hail overhead rather than confirm what landed.

The storm in context

Where Jun 27, 2026 sits in Dickinson's hail record.

This was Dickinson's 4th recorded hail day, arriving 20 days after the Jun 7, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 3rd of the 11 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Dickinson at 1" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.

The Jun 27, 2026 convective day was bigger than Dickinson: the same system put hail over 587 other tracked cities, 114 of them in North Dakota. Nearest: Gladstone (12 miles east, up to 1"); South Heart (14 miles southwest, up to 0.5"); Taylor (17 miles east, up to 0").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 11 Dickinson 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.

Damage-capable hail signal

What 1" hail means for Dickinson 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.

Roofing exposure

What this storm is worth to a roofer.

534 homes × $12,000 avg. claim

Potential roof exposure

$6.4M

Potential roof exposure — 534 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed 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 Sep 7, 2026.
