How Tulia saw the hail — from two instruments

Sep 10, 2026 · Tulia, 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
Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Tulia, TX on Sep 10, 2026 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 3"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Sep 10, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Tulia, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Sep 10, 2026 sits in Tulia's hail record.

This was Tulia's 9th recorded hail day, arriving 60 days after the Jul 12, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 1st of the 9 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Tulia at 3" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Sep 10, 2026 convective day was bigger than Tulia: the same system put hail over 94 other tracked cities, 30 of them in Texas. Nearest: Happy (11 miles north, up to 2.25"); Kress (18 miles southeast, up to 3.5"); Edmonson (22 miles south, up to 0.5").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 9 Tulia 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.

Ground reports

What people on the ground reported

No reports filed with the NWS

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 Tulia. 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.

Severe hail signal

What 3" hail means for Tulia 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 Sep 11, 2026.
