Evidence / storm surfaces
How Upton saw the hail — from two instruments
The maps here read the same storm from two angles — point detections from NEXRAD, and modeled hail size aloft. Where the two disagree is informative: it marks where estimated size outran the signatures, or trailed them.
Radar signature field Where NEXRAD flagged hail as the storm passed — point signatures from the radar, which indicate hail overhead rather than confirm what landed.
Estimated size field The modeled maximum hail size across the swath, derived from radar aloft — the largest stone the storm could have supported, which is not necessarily what reached the ground.
The storm in context
Where Jun 1, 2026 sits in Upton's hail record.
This was Upton's 1st recorded hail day — the first hail day in our records for the city. By severity it ranks 8th of the 8 storms we have logged here. Radar put the day's largest stone over Upton at 1.25" — the largest NEXRAD radar signature.
The Jun 1, 2026 convective day was bigger than Upton: the same system put hail over 827 other tracked cities, 11 of them in Wyoming. Nearest: Sundance (22 miles northeast, up to 1.25"); Rozet (28 miles northwest, up to 0.5"); Moorcroft (43 miles north, 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.
Nobody on the ground filed a report over Upton for this date, which says more about who was watching than about the storm: spotter reports only exist where there is an observer. The radar surfaces above carry the evidence for this one.
Damage-capable hail signal
What 1.25" hail means for Upton 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.
