Evidence / storm surfaces
How Pine Ridge 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.
Estimated size field Radar-estimated maximum hail size across the swath, modeled from radar aloft. It reflects the biggest stone the storm could support, which may differ from what actually fell.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 22, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Pine Ridge, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Jun 22, 2026 sits in Pine Ridge's hail record.
This was Pine Ridge's 4th recorded hail day, arriving 18 days after the Jun 4, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 12th of the 13 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Pine Ridge at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 22, 2026 convective day was bigger than Pine Ridge: the same system put hail over 258 other tracked cities, 14 of them in South Dakota. Nearest: Oglala (14 miles north, up to 1"); Wounded Knee (16 miles east, up to 0.5"); Hay Springs (18 miles south, up to 2").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 13 Pine Ridge 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.
No ground reports were filed with the National Weather Service for this storm over Pine Ridge. That is common: a report depends on someone being there to see it and take the time to call it in. The radar surfaces above are the record here — the storm was detected from above even though no one on the ground logged it.
Below the severe threshold
What 0.5" hail means for Pine Ridge 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.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$24K
Potential roof exposure — 2 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.
Names and phones for every home in the footprint: at most $0 on top of the $150 plan.
