Evidence / storm surfaces

How Junction saw the hail — from two instruments

Mar 10, 2026 · Junction, 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
Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Junction, TX on Mar 10, 2026 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 1"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Mar 10, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Junction, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Mar 10, 2026 sits in Junction's hail record.

This was Junction's 2nd recorded hail day, arriving 3 days after the Mar 7, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 5th of the 14 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Junction at 1" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Mar 10, 2026 convective day was bigger than Junction: the same system put hail over 470 other tracked cities, 88 of them in Texas. Nearest: Mountain Home (26 miles southeast, up to 0.5"); Sonora (30 miles west, up to 1.25"); London (30 miles northeast, up to 0.75").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 14 Junction 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

No reports filed with the NWS

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 Junction. 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.

Damage-capable hail signal

What 1" hail means for Junction roofs.

Quarter-size and larger hail can bruise asphalt mats, remove granules, and dent exposed soft metal. The mapped footprint identifies an inspection priority area — it does not identify which individual roofs, if any, sustained damage.

Roofing exposure

What this storm is worth to a roofer.

2,557 homes × $12,000 avg. claim

Potential roof exposure

$31M

Potential roof exposure — 2,557 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.

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 Aug 3, 2026.
