Evidence / storm surfaces
How Loup City saw the hail — from two instruments
Jun 20, 2026 · Loup City, NE
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.
Radar-estimated hail size Surface resolved
Estimated size field Radar-estimated maximum hail size across the swath, modeled from radar aloft. It reflects the biggest stone the storm could support, which may differ from what actually fell.
Max size
0.75"
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 20, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Loup City, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Jun 20, 2026 sits in Loup City's hail record.
This was Loup City's 5th recorded hail day, arriving 15 days after the Jun 5, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 4th of the 11 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Loup City at 0.75" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 20, 2026 convective day was bigger than Loup City: the same system put hail over 298 other tracked cities, 84 of them in Nebraska. Nearest: Ravenna (7 miles south, up to 1.75"); Litchfield (10 miles west, up to 2"); Hazard (10 miles southwest, up to 1.75").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 11 Loup City 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.

Near the severe threshold
What 0.75" hail means for Loup City roofs.
A signal this size sits near the National Weather Service severe threshold. Aging shingles and soft metals such as vents, flashing, and gutters may be more vulnerable; roof age, wind, and material condition all matter, and only an inspection can confirm 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 Aug 9, 2026.
