Alert issued Thu, May 21 · 1:05 AM UTC
Model, CO saw a hail-producing thunderstorm on May 20, 2026, producing stones up to 0.83 inches in diameter. The event was short-lived and concluded the same evening.
A single-zone storm moved through Model, CO (metro: model-co) in the early evening of May 20, 2026. The National Weather Service issued one hail warning at 7:05 PM MDT citing dual-polarization radar indications of up to 1 inch hail. Radar-detected hail signatures traced a compact track across the town. StormSnipe mapped the radar-derived hail detections for this storm and measured peak stone size at 0.83 inches. The warning and radar activity ended within a few tens of minutes and the event is classified as concluded.
Stones under one inch generally produce limited structural damage. For this event in Model, CO, expected impacts are surface-level only. Vehicle paint chips and minor dents to exposed soft metals are possible. Asphalt shingle roofs are unlikely to suffer through-and-through failure at 0.83 inches, but bruising and granule loss can occur on older or marginal shingles. Skylights, solar panels, and thin vinyl siding are at higher risk of cosmetic damage. Landscaping impacts will be limited to bruising of tender foliage and small fruit.
Field reports have not indicated widespread catastrophic loss within the single-zone area. Any localized damage reports should be inspected in place and documented with photographs and measurements tied to location.
Prioritize visual inspections of roofing, HVAC condenser coils, gutters, and vehicle fleets in the affected part of Model. Look for shingle bruising, granule loss, displaced flashing, and dents in exposed metalwork. On downspouts and gutters check for deformation that can impede drainage. For solar equipment and skylights inspect for hairline cracks and pitted glazing; replace or isolate damaged panels for safety.
Document all findings with dated photos and a ruler or coin for scale. Note the exact address, side of structure, and time observed. Focus initial resources along the radar-detected hail track and on properties with older roofing or preexisting damage. Paid users can view the Strike Map for a precise hail track and damage zone mapping.
