Why do cumulonimbus clouds bring hail?

Inside a cumulonimbus cloud air move up in what is called an updraft. If this updraft is strong enough, it can keep ice pellets suspended in the air. At these heights, temperaures are always very cold, however, droplets of supercooled water exist. These droplets consist of water that remains liquid below the normal freezing point and will freeze instantly if disturbed. These droplets freeze to the surface of the ice pellet, causing it to grow into a hailstone. Eventually, the hailstoen grows to heavy to remain suspended and falls to the ground.

Why are cloud at the top of the troposphere made of ice crystal rather than drops of water?

It is very cold up there, and water droplets freeze into ice.


Does snow freeze in the cloud or does it freeze in the air ONCE it comes out of the cloud?

All snow begins as snow through what is called the Bergeron process. Water droplets within a cloud get drawn to the tiny ice crystals in the cloud due to their lower vapor pressure. In doing so, they diffuse onto the ice crystals, causing them to grow. When they become large enough, they fall out of the cloud as snowflakes.


What phase change occurs as water vapor becomes cloud droplets?

Condensation. This happens a t dew point.
