Evidence / storm surfaces
How Eagle Pass saw the hail — from two instruments
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 signature field The point detections NEXRAD recorded overhead. Each signature marks where the radar saw hail aloft — it is a detection, not a stone measured on the ground.
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.
The storm in context
Where May 10, 2026 sits in Eagle Pass's hail record.
This was Eagle Pass's 4th recorded hail day, arriving 10 days after the Apr 30, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 6th of the 6 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Eagle Pass at 0" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The May 10, 2026 convective day was bigger than Eagle Pass: the same system put hail over 350 other tracked cities, 259 of them in Texas. Nearest: El Indio (23 miles southeast, up to 4"); Carrizo Springs (25 miles east, up to 1.75"); La Pryor (37 miles northeast, up to 1.75").

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.
The National Weather Service logged no spotter reports for this storm over Eagle Pass. That absence is ordinary — filing a report takes a person on the spot who saw the hail and phoned it in. What stands as the record for this date is the radar above, which caught the storm regardless.
Below the severe threshold
What 0" hail means for Eagle Pass 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.
