Evidence / storm surfaces
How Rio Rancho 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.
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.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 14, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Rio Rancho, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Jun 14, 2026 sits in Rio Rancho's hail record.
This was Rio Rancho's 1st recorded hail day — the first hail day in our records for the city. By severity it ranks 1st of the 1 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Rio Rancho at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 14, 2026 convective day was bigger than Rio Rancho: the same system put hail over 144 other tracked cities, 9 of them in New Mexico. Nearest: Youngsville (64 miles north, up to 0.5"); Lindrith (77 miles north, up to 0.5"); Tularosa (160 miles south, up to 0.5").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 1 Rio Rancho storm date 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
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.
For this storm over Rio Rancho, the NWS report log is empty — a common outcome, since ground reports only happen when someone witnesses the hail and takes the time to call it in. The detection record for the date lives in the radar maps above.
Below the severe threshold
What 0.5" hail means for Rio Rancho roofs.
Radar signals under three-quarters of an inch stay below the National Weather Service severe threshold and generally indicate lower roof risk. Older or already-worn materials can still show effects, but radar alone cannot determine whether a specific roof was damaged.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$24K
Potential roof exposure — 2 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
Claim window
June 2028
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around June 2028 — the window to reach these homeowners while it's still open. Deadlines vary by policy and state.
