Ummm . . . there are no "Mammary" clouds. 'Mammary' pertains to something that produces milk for the baby animal.

Clouds, particularly nimbus clouds and cumulonimbus clouds can produce water droplets which fall and are then called, "Rain".

If this rain freezes on the way to the ground, it is called, "Sleet".

If it freezes then is blown back up to the cloud to gather another layer of water (many times), the frozen drop gets larger and larger until finally, it is too heavy for the wind to blow it back up into the cloud any more. Then it falls to the ground and is called, "Hail".

I hope this is what you wanted to know . . .

A different take on this question.

The word for certain clouds associated with tornadoes is cumulonimbus mammatus

(essentially mammary clouds) so named because of the cloud's pendulous mammary like appearance . There is often hail associated with tornadoes so, the answers to this question is yes.
