Evidence / storm surfaces
How Miller 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 signature field NEXRAD radar signatures — the point detections the storm produced overhead. A signature is where the radar saw hail, not a confirmed stone on the ground.
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.
The storm in context
Where Jun 29, 2026 sits in Miller's hail record.
This was Miller's 7th recorded hail day, arriving 1 day after the Jun 28, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 1st of the 13 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Miller at 3.75" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.
The Jun 29, 2026 convective day was bigger than Miller: the same system put hail over 702 other tracked cities, 51 of them in South Dakota. Nearest: Orient (14 miles northeast, up to 2.25"); Redfield (23 miles east, up to 3.75"); Faulkton (25 miles north, up to 2.25").

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 Miller 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.
Severe hail signal
What 3.75" hail means for Miller roofs.
Two-inch-plus hail is capable of puncturing shingles, breaking skylights or windows, and heavily denting soft materials. The strongest radar bands warrant prompt inspection, but neither the signal nor the footprint confirms damage at a specific address.

Potential roof exposure
$228K
Potential roof exposure — 19 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
Claim window
June 2028
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around June 2028 — the window to reach these homeowners while it's still open. Deadlines vary by policy and state.
