What cloud does hail fall from?
Hail forms in thunderstorms (cumulonimbus clouds) when large updrafts carry water droplets high into the atmosphere where the air is much colder. The water freezes into ice and falls, only to be carried back up again by another updraft, where another layer of ice accumulates on the outside. After numerous trips, gaining more and more layers, the hailstone is too heavy to be lifted aloft by the updrafts, and falls to the ground.

Cumulonimbus clouds form when warm moist air is suddenly lifted how can the same cumulonimbus cloud produce rain and hail?
The cloud is formed like that but, in certain conditions that allow for it to be tall enough for the water to move fast enough to freeze for lightning to occur. But, for hail the clouds need to be 40,000 feet tall or so, this allows the water to freeze into ice.
How can you tell if the cloud above you is a nimbostratus or a cumulonimbus?
Nimbostratus is a thick cloud, typically formed on a warm front, as air is lifted over a large area (i.e. mass ascent). Precipitation is rain or snow (or a mix of both), and this can last for several hours.A cumulonimbus is formed by convection and is much taller than it is wide. Cumulonimbus clouds bring heavy showersof rain or snow, but they also bring thunder and lightning and hail. The showers will usually last for less than one hour.Finally, if you look at the bottom of a cumulonimbus cloud, you may see dark pouches (called mammatus) hanging down. These are caused by air currents trying to fall to the ground.You won't see mammatus under Nimbostratus, nor will you get thunder and lightning or hail. Thunderstorms = Cumulonimbus.

How does a thunderstorm develop from cumulonimbus clouds?
A cumulonimbus cloud developed when air is lifted to a point that it is warmer, and thus less dense than its surroundings, causing it to continue to rise. Condensing water vapor prevents the rising air from cooling to quickly. The air will continue to rise until it encounters a warmer layer of air. Sometimes and inversion, somtimes it is the stratosphere. In the upper part of the cumulonimbus cloud ice crystals form. These gradually grow into snowflakes and small pellets called graupel. The snow or graupel then falls, but melts to form rain before reaching the ground The rain causes downdrafts, which produce the wind associated with thunderstorms. Finally, as ice crystals bump into each other, electrons get transferred, and different regions of the storm develop positive and negative charges. Eventually these charge differences are releases as enormous bolts of static electricity called lightning. The lightning superheats the air instantly, generating a shockwave that we hear as thunder.
