Evidence / storm surfaces
How Gordon saw the hail — from two instruments
Jun 24, 2026 · Gordon, WI
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.
Radar-estimated hail size Surface resolved
Estimated size field Maximum hail size as estimated from radar aloft. Treat it as the storm's ceiling — the largest supportable stone — rather than a ground measurement.
Max size
1"
Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Jun 24, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Gordon, so there is one map to show, not two.
The storm in context
Where Jun 24, 2026 sits in Gordon's hail record.
This was Gordon's 2nd recorded hail day, arriving 68 days after the Apr 17, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 4th of the 6 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Gordon at 1" — radar-estimated size aloft.
The Jun 24, 2026 convective day was bigger than Gordon: the same system put hail over 383 other tracked cities, 66 of them in Wisconsin. Nearest: Bruce (59 miles southeast, up to 0.5"); Glen Flora (74 miles southeast, up to 0.75"); Bloomer (81 miles south, up to 0.5").

Damage-capable hail signal
What 1" hail means for Gordon roofs.
Quarter-size and larger hail can bruise asphalt mats, remove granules, and dent exposed soft metal. The mapped footprint identifies an inspection priority area — it does not identify which individual roofs, if any, sustained damage.

Roofing exposure
What this storm is worth to a roofer.
107 homes × $12,000 avg. claim
Potential roof exposure
$1.3M
Potential roof exposure — 107 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.

- ~$15K
Close just 0.5% of the 107 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.

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 Aug 3, 2026.
