Two ways to read the storm

How Harrisville saw the hail — from two instruments

We map this storm two ways: the NEXRAD radar signatures the storm produced overhead, and the radar-estimated size of the hail in the air. The two surfaces don’t have to match — where they diverge is where estimated size aloft ran ahead of, or behind, what the signatures caught.

Radar-estimated hail size
Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Harrisville, NY on Jan 14, 2026

Maximum hail size as estimated from radar aloft. Treat it as the storm's ceiling — the largest supportable stone — rather than a ground measurement.

Max size 0.5"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jan 14, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Harrisville, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Jan 14, 2026 sits in Harrisville's hail record

This was Harrisville's 1st recorded hail day — the first hail day in our records for the city. By severity it ranks 4th of the 7 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Harrisville at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Jan 14, 2026 convective day was bigger than Harrisville: the same system put hail over 2 other tracked cities, 1 of them in New York. Nearest: Lowville (23 miles southwest, up to 0.75"); Calhan (1535 miles west, up to 0.5").

These maps are stills from Harrisville's Jan 14, 2026 storm. In the Overview app the same surfaces are live — radar updating in real time, radar-estimated hail size as it forms, and NWS spotter reports pinned where they're filed — with a radar replay you can scrub back over any past day.

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 Harrisville, 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 Harrisville roofs

Hail under three-quarters of an inch stays below the National Weather Service severe threshold and rarely breaks shingles outright. But repeated small-hail events accelerate granule loss and shorten roof life — on older roofs, it's still worth a conversation.

What this storm is worth to a roofer

$1.6M

Potential roof exposure — 130 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.

Other storms in Harrisville

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 surfaces are detections and estimates, not confirmed damage. Last updated Aug 3, 2026.
