Evidence / storm surfaces
How Dalhart 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.
Radar signature field NEXRAD's hail signatures for this storm: the spots the radar detected from above. A detection overhead is not the same thing as a confirmed stone below.
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.
The storm in context
Where Jun 26, 2026 sits in Dalhart's hail record.
This was Dalhart's 6th recorded hail day, arriving 14 days after the Jun 12, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 3rd of the 10 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Dalhart at 1.75" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.
The Jun 26, 2026 convective day was bigger than Dalhart: the same system put hail over 440 other tracked cities, 15 of them in Texas. Nearest: Texline (28 miles northwest, up to 1"); Stratford (37 miles northeast, up to 1"); Dumas (41 miles east, up to 0").

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 16 minutes, from to .
High damage potential
What 1.75" hail means for Dalhart 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.
