Evidence / storm surfaces

How Wallace saw the hail — from two instruments

Jun 21, 2026 · Wallace, 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.

Radar-estimated hail size Surface resolved
Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Wallace, NE on Jun 21, 2026 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.

Max size 1.5"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 21, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Wallace, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Jun 21, 2026 sits in Wallace's hail record.

This was Wallace's 7th recorded hail day, arriving 13 days after the Jun 8, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 4th of the 17 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Wallace at 1.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Jun 21, 2026 convective day was bigger than Wallace: the same system put hail over 415 other tracked cities, 21 of them in Nebraska. Nearest: Dickens (8 miles east, up to 1"); Sutherland (17 miles north, up to 1.5"); Wauneta (20 miles southwest, up to 2.5").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 17 Wallace 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.

Ground reports

What people on the ground reported

No reports filed with the NWS

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.

No ground reports were filed with the National Weather Service for this storm over Wallace. That is common: a report depends on someone being there to see it and take the time to call it in. The radar surfaces above are the record here — the storm was detected from above even though no one on the ground logged it.

High damage potential

What 1.5" hail means for Wallace roofs.

Hail around an inch and a half is capable of cracking shingles, stripping granules, and denting gutters, vents, and siding. Risk is usually greatest near the strongest radar signal, but property-level damage still requires an on-site inspection.

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 9, 2026.
