How Llano 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-estimated hail size
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
1.5"
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for May 19, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Llano, so there is one map to show, not two.
Where May 19, 2026 sits in Llano's hail record
This was Llano's 7th recorded hail day, arriving 9 days after the May 10, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 5th of the 12 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Llano at 1.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The May 19, 2026 convective day was bigger than Llano: the same system put hail over 263 other tracked cities, 151 of them in Texas. Nearest: Burnet (12 miles east, up to 1.25"); Tow (14 miles north, up to 1"); Marble Falls (14 miles southeast, up to 1").
These maps are stills from Llano's May 19, 2026 storm. In the Overview app the same surfaces are live — radar updating in real time, radar-estimated hail size as it forms, and NWS spotter reports pinned where they're filed — with a radar replay you can scrub back over any past day.
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.

What 1.5" hail means for Llano roofs
At an inch and a half, hail cracks shingles, strips granules down to the mat, and dents gutters, vents, and siding. A footprint like this typically produces a wave of insurance claims — and the contractor who reaches the homeowner first usually gets the inspection.
What this storm is worth to a roofer

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 surfaces are detections and estimates,
not confirmed damage. Last updated Aug 3, 2026.
