Two ways to read the storm

How Ore City 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 over the swath. The model reports the biggest stone the storm could sustain in the air; what actually fell may have been smaller.

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 23, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Ore City, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Jun 23, 2026 sits in Ore City's hail record

This was Ore City's 4th recorded hail day, arriving 32 days after the May 22, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 4th of the 6 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Ore City at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Jun 23, 2026 convective day was bigger than Ore City: the same system put hail over 330 other tracked cities, 75 of them in Texas. Nearest: Pittsburg (9 miles northwest, up to 1.25"); Gilmer (15 miles west, up to 1"); Leesburg (27 miles northwest, up to 1").

These maps are stills from Ore City's Jun 23, 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.

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.

No ground reports were filed with the National Weather Service for this storm over Ore City. That is common: a report depends on someone being there to see it and take the time to call it in. The radar surfaces above are the record here — the storm was detected from above even though no one on the ground logged it.

Below the severe threshold

What 0.5" hail means for Ore City roofs

Hail under three-quarters of an inch stays below the National Weather Service severe threshold and rarely breaks shingles outright. But repeated small-hail events accelerate granule loss and shorten roof life — on older roofs, it's still worth a conversation.

What this storm is worth to a roofer

Other storms in Ore City

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.
