Preliminary radar record — NOAA MRMS
June 24, 2026 El Paso County, CO Hailstorm
On June 24, 2026, NOAA MRMS radar estimated hail in the 2.5″+ size class in El Paso County, Colorado, across 332 radar cells. Radar-estimated MESH ≥1″ is preliminary; size is a class, not a measurement, and this is not a damage outline.
Peak radar-estimated hail size: 2.87".
On June 24, 2026, NOAA MRMS radar detected radar-estimated hail up to 2.87" in El Paso County, Colorado — 332 radar cells on June 24, 2026. Source: NOAA Multi-Radar/Multi-Sensor (MRMS) MESH, via HailScore. Cells still re-reporting the June 23, 2026 storm within MRMS's trailing 24-hour maximum are excluded, so a raw MRMS query for June 24, 2026 returns that earlier storm's larger reading. Data current as of September 15, 2026.
El Paso County has 163 NOAA-verified hail days on record since 2015. The largest measured 4".
For scale, the biggest on record: August 5, 2023 — 4" hail (NOAA ground-verified).

Source: NOAA Multi-Radar/Multi-Sensor (MRMS) MESH. Coordinates are radar-grid cell centers — preliminary, not ground-verified. Sizes are a class, not a measurement — MESH is tuned so most measured hail comes in at or below the estimate.
Because each cell is padded before merging and small gaps between neighbouring cells are bridged, the shaded shape is larger than the cells actually measured and encloses pockets where the radar recorded nothing. Read it as the storm's approximate extent, not a cell-by-cell map: it is not a damage outline, not a claim that every roof inside it was hit, and not a circle drawn around an address. Whether a specific property was affected depends on its exact distance from the measured cells.
How the storm unfolded

Frequently asked questions
Did it hail in El Paso County, Colorado on June 24, 2026?+
On June 24, 2026, NOAA MRMS radar estimated hail in the 2.5″+ size class in El Paso County, Colorado, across 332 radar cells. Radar-estimated MESH ≥1″ is preliminary; size is a class, not a measurement, and this is not a damage outline.
What is the largest hail recorded on June 24, 2026 in El Paso County so far?+
NOAA's MRMS radar network detected radar-estimated hail up to 2.87" in El Paso County, Colorado on June 24, 2026. This is a preliminary, radar-estimated figure (MESH — Maximum Estimated Size of Hail), not a ground-verified measurement. Cells still re-reporting the June 23, 2026 storm within MRMS's trailing 24-hour maximum are excluded, so a raw MRMS query for June 24, 2026 returns that earlier storm's larger reading. Ground-verified NOAA Storm Events records for this date typically publish 2-4 months later, and this page upgrades to them automatically.
Is this storm record final?+
No — this is a preliminary radar record, current as of September 15, 2026. It is built from NOAA MRMS radar data, which updates continuously (typically within about 2 hours of a storm). The verified NOAA Storm Events Database entry for this date, with ground-truthed observations and official event IDs, usually publishes 2-4 months after the storm. MESH is tuned so that roughly 75% of measured hail comes in at or below the radar estimate, so read a size as a class (within about one tier), not as a measurement.
Was my property in the storm area?+
The map above shades the storm's radar footprint — the MRMS cells that estimated hail of 1 inch or larger, merged into colour-coded size bands. Enter your address in the free HailScore lookup for a property-level check of the radar record against your exact coordinates — no signup required.
Can I use this preliminary record for an insurance claim?+
The radar record can help you and your adjuster establish that hail was detected near your property on June 24, 2026 — it is the same NOAA MRMS data source many industry tools use. For the date of loss itself, adjusters typically also reference the ground-verified NOAA Storm Events entry once it publishes. A professional roof inspection remains the standard first step for documenting actual damage.
