Evidence / storm surfaces

How Round Mountain saw the hail — from two instruments

Feb 5, 2026 · Round Mountain, NV

Each storm gets two readings: the radar signatures NEXRAD recorded as the cells passed overhead, and a modeled estimate of hail size in the air. They are independent surfaces, so a mismatch between them is expected — and worth reading.

Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Round Mountain, NV on Feb 5, 2026 Estimated size field

Radar-estimated hail size over the swath. The model reports the biggest stone the storm could sustain in the air; what actually fell may have been smaller.

Max size 1.25"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Feb 5, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Round Mountain, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Feb 5, 2026 sits in Round Mountain's hail record.

This was Round Mountain'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 Round Mountain at 1.25" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Feb 5, 2026 convective day was bigger than Round Mountain: the same system put hail over 5 other tracked cities, 5 of them in Nevada. Nearest: Austin (42 miles north, up to 0.75"); Tonopah (49 miles south, up to 2"); Eureka (80 miles northeast, up to 1").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 1 Round Mountain 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

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 Round Mountain. 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.

Damage-capable hail signal

What 1.25" hail means for Round Mountain roofs.

Quarter-size and larger hail can bruise asphalt mats, remove granules, and dent exposed soft metal. The mapped footprint identifies an inspection priority area — it does not identify which individual roofs, if any, sustained 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 2, 2026.
