Hailing refers to the process by which hail, a type of solid precipitation, falls from the sky. Hailstones are balls or irregular lumps of ice that are produced by thunderstorms with strong, sustained updrafts. These updrafts carry raindrops upward into extremely cold areas of the atmosphere, where they freeze and then accumulate additional layers of ice. The size of hailstones can vary significantly, ranging from small pellets to large, damaging balls of ice that can cause substantial property and crop damage. The occurrence of hail is often associated with severe weather conditions, including powerful thunderstorms, and is more common in certain geographic regions and during specific times of the year. Forecasting hailstorms is challenging but essential for mitigating the risks associated with this natural phenomenon.
