Evidence / storm surfaces

How Laverne saw the hail — from two instruments

Sep 12, 2026 · Laverne, OK

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 Surface resolved
Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Laverne, OK on Sep 12, 2026 Estimated size field

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 1.5"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Sep 12, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Laverne, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Sep 12, 2026 sits in Laverne's hail record.

This was Laverne's 20th recorded hail day, arriving 27 days after the Aug 16, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 7th of the 20 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Laverne at 1.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Sep 12, 2026 convective day was bigger than Laverne: the same system put hail over 354 other tracked cities, 66 of them in Oklahoma. Nearest: May (9 miles southeast, up to 0.5"); Buffalo (20 miles northeast, up to 2.5"); Fort Supply (20 miles southeast, up to 0.5").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 20 Laverne 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.

Nobody on the ground filed a report over Laverne for this date, which says more about who was watching than about the storm: spotter reports only exist where there is an observer. The radar surfaces above carry the evidence for this one.

High damage potential

What 1.5" hail means for Laverne 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 13, 2026.
