Evidence / storm surfaces
How Crowell saw the hail — from two instruments
Oct 14, 2026 · Crowell, TX
Each storm gets two readings: the radar signatures NEXRAD recorded as the cells passed overhead, and a modeled estimate of hail size in the air. They are independent surfaces, so a mismatch between them is expected — and worth reading.
Radar-estimated hail size Surface resolved
Estimated size field Radar-estimated hail size over the swath. The model reports the biggest stone the storm could sustain in the air; what actually fell may have been smaller.
Max size
2"
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Oct 14, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Crowell, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Oct 14, 2026 sits in Crowell's hail record.
This was Crowell's 11th recorded hail day, arriving 101 days after the Jul 5, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 3rd of the 11 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Crowell at 2" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Oct 14, 2026 convective day was bigger than Crowell: the same system put hail over 27 other tracked cities, 11 of them in Texas. Nearest: Vernon (28 miles east, up to 1"); Electra (39 miles east, up to 0.75"); Grandfield (65 miles east, up to 0.5").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 11 Crowell 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.

Hail reports
1 reportSevere hail signal
What 2" hail means for Crowell 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.

A storm day here is a convective day — it runs from noon to noon
UTC, so late-night hail is grouped with the afternoon storm that
spawned it rather than split across two calendar dates. Ground
reports are public-domain observations from the NOAA Storm
Prediction Center. Radar tells you where to look. Only an inspection confirms damage at an address. Last updated Oct 15, 2026.
