Evidence / storm surfaces
How Augusta 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.
Estimated size field 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 19, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Augusta, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Jun 19, 2026 sits in Augusta's hail record.
This was Augusta's 6th recorded hail day, arriving 10 days after the Jun 9, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 4th of the 7 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Augusta at 0.75" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 19, 2026 convective day was bigger than Augusta: the same system put hail over 339 other tracked cities, 26 of them in Wisconsin. Nearest: Thorp (8 miles northeast, up to 0.5"); Osseo (12 miles southwest, up to 1"); Fall Creek (13 miles west, up to 0.75").

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.

How the storm moved
Read from the arrival times and locations of the NOAA ground reports, not a radar-measured storm track.
Reports came from Fall Creek — beyond Augusta itself.
Near the severe threshold
What 0.75" hail means for Augusta roofs.
A signal this size sits near the National Weather Service severe threshold. Aging shingles and soft metals such as vents, flashing, and gutters may be more vulnerable; roof age, wind, and material condition all matter, and only an inspection can confirm damage.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
Potential roof exposure
$2.7M
Potential roof exposure — 223 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.
- Illustrative jobs
- 1 job
- Illustrative work
- ~$15K
Close just 0.5% of the 223 homes in this footprint at the average $15,000 roof job. Illustrative math, not a projection — your results depend on your outreach and how the market responds.
Claim window
June 2028
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.
Names and phones for every home in the footprint: at most $47 on top of the $150 plan.
