How Alliance saw the hail — from two instruments
Jun 1, 2026 · Alliance, NE
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.
NEXRAD radar signatures Surface resolved
Radar signature field Where NEXRAD flagged hail as the storm passed — point signatures from the radar, which indicate hail overhead rather than confirm what landed.

Radar-estimated hail size Surface resolved
Estimated size field 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.

The storm in context
Where Jun 1, 2026 sits in Alliance's hail record.
This was Alliance's 3rd recorded hail day, arriving 2 days after the May 30, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 7th of the 16 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Alliance at 2.5" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.
The Jun 1, 2026 convective day was bigger than Alliance: the same system put hail over 827 other tracked cities, 48 of them in Nebraska. Nearest: Angora (24 miles south, up to 2"); Bridgeport (43 miles south, up to 1"); Morrill (54 miles west, up to 0.75").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 16 Alliance 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.

Timing and place names from NOAA ground reports

Severe hail signal
What 2.5" hail means for Alliance roofs.
Two-inch-plus hail is capable of puncturing shingles, breaking skylights or windows, and heavily denting soft materials. The strongest radar bands warrant prompt inspection, but neither the signal nor the footprint confirms damage at a specific address.

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 6, 2026.
