Evidence / storm surfaces
How Wilson 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.
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.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jul 19, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Wilson, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Jul 19, 2026 sits in Wilson's hail record.
This was Wilson's 9th recorded hail day, arriving 14 days after the Jul 5, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 9th of the 10 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Wilson at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jul 19, 2026 convective day was bigger than Wilson: the same system put hail over 351 other tracked cities, 1 of them in Oklahoma. Nearest: Bennington (83 miles east, up to 0.75"); Haslet (90 miles south, up to 0.5"); Mineral Wells (108 miles south, up to 0.5").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 10 Wilson 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
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 Wilson 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.
Below the severe threshold
What 0.5" hail means for Wilson roofs.
Radar signals under three-quarters of an inch stay below the National Weather Service severe threshold and generally indicate lower roof risk. Older or already-worn materials can still show effects, but radar alone cannot determine whether a specific roof was damaged.
