Evidence / storm surfaces
How Muleshoe saw the hail — from two instruments
Aug 27, 2026 · Muleshoe, TX
The maps here read the same storm from two angles — point detections from NEXRAD, and modeled hail size aloft. Where the two disagree is informative: it marks where estimated size outran the signatures, or trailed them.
Radar-estimated hail size Surface resolved
Estimated size field The modeled maximum hail size across the swath, derived from radar aloft — the largest stone the storm could have supported, which is not necessarily what reached the ground.
Max size
1.75"
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Aug 27, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Muleshoe, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Aug 27, 2026 sits in Muleshoe's hail record.
This was Muleshoe's 11th recorded hail day, arriving 27 days after the Jul 31, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 4th of the 11 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Muleshoe at 1.75" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Aug 27, 2026 convective day was bigger than Muleshoe: the same system put hail over 365 other tracked cities, 79 of them in Texas. Nearest: Farwell (18 miles northwest, up to 0.75"); Clovis (20 miles northwest, up to 0.75"); Bovina (25 miles north, up to 1.5").
These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 11 Muleshoe 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.

High damage potential
What 1.75" hail means for Muleshoe 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.

105 homes × $12,000 avg. claim
Potential roof exposure
$1.3M
Potential roof exposure — 105 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 28, 2026.
