How Madrid saw the hail — from two instruments

Jun 24, 2026 · Madrid, 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 map of the storm over Madrid, NE on Jun 24, 2026 — 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 3.25"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 24, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Madrid, so there is one map to show, not two.

Severe hail signal

What 3.25" hail means for Madrid 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 Aug 3, 2026.
