How Green Bay saw the hail — from two instruments

Apr 13, 2026 · Green Bay, 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 map of the storm over Green Bay, WI on Apr 13, 2026 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 0.5"

Only the radar-estimated size surface resolved for Apr 13, 2026 — this storm produced no NEXRAD point detections over Green Bay, so there is one map to show, not two.

The storm in context

Where Apr 13, 2026 sits in Green Bay's hail record.

This was Green Bay's 2nd recorded hail day, arriving 14 days after the Mar 30, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 3rd of the 6 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Green Bay at 0.5" — radar-estimated size aloft.

The Apr 13, 2026 convective day was bigger than Green Bay: the same system put hail over 467 other tracked cities, 108 of them in Wisconsin. Nearest: De Pere (8 miles southwest, up to 0.5"); Denmark (12 miles southeast, up to 0.75"); New Franken (12 miles northeast, up to 0.5").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 6 Green Bay 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.

Below the severe threshold

What 0.5" hail means for Green Bay roofs.

Radar signals under three-quarters of an inch stay below the National Weather Service severe threshold and generally indicate lower roof risk. Older or already-worn materials can still show effects, but radar alone cannot determine whether a specific roof was damaged.

10,977 homes × $12,000 avg. claim

Potential roof exposure

$132M

Potential roof exposure — 10,977 homes × the ~$12,000 industry-average hail roof claim. Exposure, not confirmed damage.

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.
