HAIL
Frozen rain droplets can form in thunderstorms when raindrops get carried into colder upper atmosphere regions where they freeze. These frozen droplets, called hail, can grow larger as they are carried by updrafts within the storm, eventually falling to the ground when they become too heavy to be supported by the updraft.
Hail is a solid state of matter. It forms when updrafts in thunderstorms carry water droplets high into the atmosphere where they freeze. These frozen droplets grow in size as they collide with other frozen droplets, eventually falling to the ground as hailstones.
The result is known as hail (frozen droplets of water).

Frozen water droplets are small particles of water in a solid state, formed when liquid water freezes due to low temperatures. These droplets can take various forms, such as snowflakes, ice pellets, or hail, depending on the specific conditions of temperature and humidity.
Hail is made up of frozen pellets of rain that is made in cumulonimbus clouds. Hail is frozen water crystals that fall from the sky. Hail can range in size from an eighth of an inch to the size of a grapefruit.
The main types of precipitation are rain, snow, sleet, and hail. Rain is liquid water droplets falling from the sky, while snow is ice crystals. Sleet is frozen raindrops or partially melted snowflakes, and hail is balls of ice that form in thunderstorms.
Yes it is. Hail is simply water droplets that have been frozen while 'suspended' in a thunder cloud. The droplets get 'tossed around' by air currents in the cloud - until they're too heavy, and fall to earth.
A cloud is a visible mass of water droplets or frozen water crystals.
