Hail — date from event record.
Dates and labels are auto-filled from the event’s begin/end fields; add a curated extra.timeline in YAML for a richer story.
Continental-scale maps only. Wxmap daily snow/wind maps show the whole U.S. for the map date. On this date the strongest signal may be hundreds of miles away from the NOAA report described above — open the map viewer only if you want that national snapshot, not a local verification of this event.
For bulk NOAA rows we do not embed the catalog map here (same-date CONUS view can mislead). Curated pages can set map_focus in YAML to embed a chosen map.
Softball-size hail damaged numerous roofs and automobiles.
