Two ways to read the storm

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.

Radar-estimated hail size
Radar-estimated hail-size map of the storm over Augusta, WI on Jun 19, 2026

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.

Max size 0.75"

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 6 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: Fall Creek (8 miles southwest, up to 0.75"); Osseo (15 miles south, up to 1"); Boyd (21 miles north, up to 0.75").

These maps are stills from Augusta's Jun 19, 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.

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.

Near the severe threshold

What 0.75" hail means for Augusta roofs

Hail this size sits right at the edge of the National Weather Service severe threshold. Newer roofs usually shrug it off, but aging or already-worn shingles can bruise, and soft metals — vents, flashing, gutters — often show the first dents.

What this storm is worth to a roofer

$2.7M

Potential roof exposure — 223 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.

Other storms in Augusta

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 2, 2026.
