Two ways to read the storm

How Okemah saw the hail — from two instruments

Two instruments, one storm: NEXRAD logs the point signatures it detected overhead, while the estimated-size surface models how large the hail aloft could have grown. Agreement between them is not guaranteed — the gaps are where the model ran ahead of, or behind, the detections.

The storm in context

Where Apr 25, 2026 sits in Okemah's hail record

This was Okemah's 6th recorded hail day, arriving 1 day after the Apr 24, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 3rd of the 11 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Okemah at 1" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.

The Apr 25, 2026 convective day was bigger than Okemah: the same system put hail over 392 other tracked cities, 93 of them in Oklahoma. Nearest: Weleetka (11 miles southeast, up to 1.75"); Paden (14 miles west, up to 0"); Haskell (44 miles east, up to 0").

These maps are stills from Okemah's Apr 25, 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 Okemah, 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.

Shingle-bruising hail

What 1" hail means for Okemah 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

$1.7M

Potential roof exposure — 141 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.

Other storms in Okemah

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.
