3 inch Hail
Posted: 15 May 2020 03:29 AM
A powerful storm just south of Des Moines dumped large hail up to three inches in diameter
Thursday afternoon. The featured map presents a preview of an upcoming hail size estimate product
produced by the IEM based on NOAA MRMS MESH along with available NWS Local Storm Reports
centered over southern Iowa. The MESH product uses RADAR data and algorithms to produce
estimates of maximum hail size. The three inch report aligns well with the estimated maximum in the
product. The data presentation shown is not yet available on the website for generation, stay tuned!
