Common questions
Was my address hit by this storm?
This is one storm's full footprint, 8 warning zones across Kansas and Nebraska. If you got here from a specific town, that's one area inside it. Whether hail reached your exact roof depends on where you sit within the footprint, and an address check shows what NOAA radar detected over your location.
How big was the hail in this storm?
Radar confirmed hail up to 2.1″ (hen egg) in this system. Sizes varied by area, so check the breakdown below.
Is this storm still active?
Yes. Radar is still tracking it as of the latest scan, so hail sizes and the affected area can still grow. This page updates as new scans come in.
How do I document this storm for an insurance claim?
Photograph any damage and note the date, then confirm what radar recorded at your address. Most policies require prompt notice and deadlines vary, so a dated radar record can help support the timeline. Hail over an area doesn't guarantee damage to any specific property. Only an inspection confirms that.
What to do right now
Take cover now
Get indoors and away from windows until the storm passes. Hail this size can break glass and injure anyone caught outside.
Move vehicles under cover
A few minutes getting cars into a garage or under a structure can prevent thousands of dollars in dent damage.
Photograph the hail safely
From shelter, capture a few stones next to a coin or ruler and note the time. Size and timing are what matter most for a claim later.
Check your exact address
