Evidence / storm surfaces
How Oldham saw the hail — from two instruments
The maps here read the same storm from two angles — point detections from NEXRAD, and modeled hail size aloft. Where the two disagree is informative: it marks where estimated size outran the signatures, or trailed them.
Radar signature field Where NEXRAD flagged hail as the storm passed — point signatures from the radar, which indicate hail overhead rather than confirm what landed.
Estimated size field The modeled maximum hail size across the swath, derived from radar aloft — the largest stone the storm could have supported, which is not necessarily what reached the ground.
The storm in context
Where Jun 3, 2026 sits in Oldham's hail record.
This was Oldham's 1st recorded hail day — the first hail day in our records for the city. By severity it ranks 6th of the 7 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Oldham at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 3, 2026 convective day was bigger than Oldham: the same system put hail over 274 other tracked cities, 69 of them in South Dakota. Nearest: Winfred (14 miles south, up to 0.5"); De Smet (23 miles northwest, up to 1"); Bruce (25 miles northeast, up to 0.5").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 7 Oldham 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 Oldham 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 Oldham 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.
