The wider storm

During the afternoon and evening hours of June 20, 2026, a cluster of thunderstorms tracked into eastern Nebraska, driven by increasing moisture transport and large-scale forcing for ascent. The greatest instability resided across southeast Nebraska, where radar interpretation noted the strongest hail cores through the evening. At 4:41 PM CST, the public reported quarter-sized hail (1.00 inch in diameter) near Jansen, Nebraska. The storms gradually pushed eastward and decayed later into the evening.

Began near Jansen (40.1800, -97.0600).
