How Plymouth saw the hail — from two instruments

Jul 1, 2026 · Plymouth, 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.

NEXRAD radar signatures — the point detections the storm produced overhead. A signature is where the radar saw hail, not a confirmed stone on the ground.

The storm in context

Where Jul 1, 2026 sits in Plymouth's hail record.

This was Plymouth's 7th recorded hail day, arriving 15 days after the Jun 16, 2026 storm. By severity it ranks 1st of the 8 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Plymouth at 3.5" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.

The Jul 1, 2026 convective day was bigger than Plymouth: the same system put hail over 1,147 other tracked cities, 101 of them in Wisconsin. Nearest: Campbellsport (5 miles west, up to 3.25"); Glenbeulah (7 miles north, up to 3.25"); Adell (9 miles southeast, up to 0.5").

These maps are stills. In the app this date is one of 8 Plymouth 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.

Severe hail signal

What 3.5" hail means for Plymouth 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 4, 2026.
