Two ways to read the storm

How Glen Ullin 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.

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

This was Glen Ullin's 4th recorded hail day, arriving 6 days after the Jun 27, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 4th of the 7 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Glen Ullin at 1.75" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.

The Jul 3, 2026 convective day was bigger than Glen Ullin: the same system put hail over 1,885 other tracked cities, 19 of them in North Dakota. Nearest: Hebron (24 miles north, up to 1.75"); Golden Valley (39 miles north, up to 1.5"); New Salem (39 miles northeast, up to 1.5").

These maps are stills from Glen Ullin's Jul 3, 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 Glen Ullin 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.

Widespread claimable damage

What 1.75" hail means for Glen Ullin roofs

At an inch and a half, hail cracks shingles, strips granules down to the mat, and dents gutters, vents, and siding. A footprint like this typically produces a wave of insurance claims — and the contractor who reaches the homeowner first usually gets the inspection.

Other storms in Glen Ullin

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.
