Hail in Snyder May 10, 2026
Both radar surfaces caught this storm: NEXRAD logged 152 hail signatures up to 3", and the radar-estimated size reached 1.75" aloft. At 3" — baseball — this is severe, roof-replacing hail: close to every roof inside the footprint becomes a claim candidate.

How Snyder saw the hail — from two instruments
Two instruments, one storm: NEXRAD logs the point signatures it detected overhead, while the estimated-size surface models how large the hail aloft could have grown. Agreement between them is not guaranteed — the gaps are where the model ran ahead of, or behind, the detections.

Where May 10, 2026 sits in Snyder's hail record
This was Snyder's 3rd recorded hail day, arriving 13 days after the Apr 27, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 1st of the 7 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Snyder at 3" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.
The May 10, 2026 convective day was bigger than Snyder: the same system put hail over 350 other tracked cities, 259 of them in Texas. Nearest: Justiceburg (18 miles northwest, up to 1.75"); Ira (25 miles southwest, up to 2.5"); Roscoe (33 miles southeast, up to 2.5").
These maps are stills from Snyder's May 10, 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 3" hail means for Snyder roofs
Two-inch-plus hail punctures shingles, breaks skylights and windows, and dents anything soft. In the core of a footprint like this, close to every roof is a candidate for an insurance claim. Speed decides who writes those jobs.

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.
