Evidence / storm surfaces
How Canyon 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.
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.
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 23, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Canyon, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Jun 23, 2026 sits in Canyon's hail record.
This was Canyon's 5th recorded hail day, arriving 10 days after the Jun 13, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 2nd of the 12 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Canyon at 1.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 23, 2026 convective day was bigger than Canyon: the same system put hail over 330 other tracked cities, 75 of them in Texas. Nearest: Amarillo (7 miles north, up to 2.25"); Happy (18 miles south, up to 1.25"); Wildorado (21 miles west, up to 2.5").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 12 Canyon 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.

Storm forensics
How the storm moved
Read from the arrival times and locations of the NOAA ground reports, not a radar-measured storm track.
Hail was reported over 11 minutes, from to .
Reports came from Umbarger — beyond Canyon itself.
High damage potential
What 1.5" hail means for Canyon roofs.
Hail around an inch and a half is capable of cracking shingles, stripping granules, and denting gutters, vents, and siding. Risk is usually greatest near the strongest radar signal, but property-level damage still requires an on-site inspection.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$46M
Potential roof exposure — 3,860 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 19 jobs
- Illustrative work
- ~$285K
Close just 0.5% of the 3,860 homes in this footprint at the average $15,000 roof job. Illustrative math, not a projection — your results depend on your outreach and how the market responds.
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 $811 on top of the $150 plan.
