The 8th most severe storm Abernathy has seen in the last 12 months
Overview's storm severity score weighs hailstone size, homes in the footprint, and ground-truth reports.

Evidence / storm surfaces
How Abernathy 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 Abernathy's hail record.
This was Abernathy's 6th recorded hail day, arriving 5 days after the Jun 24, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 8th of the 8 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Abernathy at 0" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 29, 2026 convective day was bigger than Abernathy: the same system put hail over 702 other tracked cities, 20 of them in Texas. Nearest: Hale Center (10 miles north, up to 1"); Anton (15 miles west, up to 1"); Littlefield (20 miles west, up to 1").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 8 Abernathy 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 Abernathy 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" hail means for Abernathy 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.
