Two ways to read the storm

How Skellytown saw the hail — from two instruments

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
NEXRAD radar-signature map of the hail storm over Skellytown, TX on Jun 25, 2026

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 Jun 25, 2026 sits in Skellytown's hail record

This was Skellytown's 2nd recorded hail day, arriving 77 days after the Apr 9, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 2nd of the 4 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Skellytown at 1.75" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.

The Jun 25, 2026 convective day was bigger than Skellytown: the same system put hail over 395 other tracked cities, 26 of them in Texas. Nearest: Borger (9 miles west, up to 1.75"); Pampa (26 miles southeast, up to 2.5"); Lefors (27 miles east, up to 2.5").

These maps are stills from Skellytown's Jun 25, 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.

Widespread claimable damage

What 1.75" hail means for Skellytown 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

$420K

Potential roof exposure — 35 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
Claims from this storm can typically be filed until around June 2028 — the window to reach these homeowners while it's still open. Deadlines vary by policy and state.

Other storms in Skellytown

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.
