Evidence / storm surfaces

How Seymour saw the hail — from two instruments

Apr 1, 2026 · Seymour, TX

We map this storm two ways: the NEXRAD radar signatures the storm produced overhead, and the radar-estimated size of the hail in the air. The two surfaces don’t have to match — where they diverge is where estimated size aloft ran ahead of, or behind, what the signatures caught.

NEXRAD radar signatures — the point detections the storm produced overhead. A signature is where the radar saw hail, not a confirmed stone on the ground.

The storm in context

Where Apr 1, 2026 sits in Seymour's hail record.

This was Seymour's 4th recorded hail day, arriving 1 day after the Mar 31, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 2nd of the 20 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Seymour at 2.5" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.

The Apr 1, 2026 convective day was bigger than Seymour: the same system put hail over 329 other tracked cities, 27 of them in Texas. Nearest: Goree (9 miles southwest, up to 2.5"); Crowell (24 miles northwest, up to 2.25"); Benjamin (26 miles west, up to 2.5").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 20 Seymour 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.

Severe hail signal

What 2.5" hail means for Seymour roofs.

Two-inch-plus hail is capable of puncturing shingles, breaking skylights or windows, and heavily denting soft materials. The strongest radar bands warrant prompt inspection, but neither the signal nor the footprint confirms damage at a specific address.

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.
