Two ways to read the storm

How Jefferson saw the hail — from two instruments

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

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"

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

The storm in context

Where Jun 14, 2026 sits in Jefferson's hail record

This was Jefferson's 2nd recorded hail day, arriving 4 days after the Jun 10, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 1st of the 5 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Jefferson at 1" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Jun 14, 2026 convective day was bigger than Jefferson: the same system put hail over 144 other tracked cities, 10 of them in Ohio. Nearest: Andover (6 miles southeast, up to 0.5"); Linesville (11 miles east, up to 0.5"); Kingsville (12 miles northeast, up to 1").

These maps are stills from Jefferson's Jun 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.

Shingle-bruising hail

What 1" hail means for Jefferson roofs

Quarter-size and larger hail is where asphalt shingle damage starts in earnest: bruised mats and granule loss that homeowners can't see from the ground. Most people inside the footprint won't know their roof was hit until someone inspects it.

What this storm is worth to a roofer

$101M

Potential roof exposure — 8,432 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.

Other storms in Jefferson

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.
