No, hail requires strong updrafts to form. These do not occur in such shallow clouds as nimbostratus.

Which clouds develop when barometric pressure falls and rains begins to fall?
nimbostratus clouds
Do snow fall from the sky or clouds?
Clouds. But technically it is falling from the sky, from clouds in the sky.
What kind of precipitation would fall if it is above freezing in the clouds?
It would start to fall as rain or snow depending on the exact temperature however if it was colder near the ground it would turn into snow or ice.
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.

What does a nimbostratus cloud look like?
Nimbostratus clouds look like light grey clouds that cover the entire sky, and cause rain to fall.
Can cirrus clouds form snow?
Cirrus clouds are high enough to be at a low enough temperature for the water droplets to form into ice crystals. However, Cirrus clouds are not precipitation clouds, so no snow or rain can fall from them. The clouds that can cause snow to fall in the right conditions are Nimbostratus and Cumulonimbus clouds.
How its possible to fall the fish from the clouds?
no...
What types of clouds are associated with a warm front?
Generally speaking, both stratiform and convective clouds will produce precipitation. So stratus cloud ("scud") and stratocumulus will produce drizzle, cumulus and/or cumulonimbus will produce showers of rain, snow or hail, while altostratus and nimbostratus will produce rain or snow. The middle level cloud altocumulus castellanus will produce light showers. Cirrus is composed of ice crystals and while virga (rain falling but evaporating) can sometimes be seen, high level cloud rarely produces precipitation. Bear in mind that the low, middle and high cloud etages vary in height with latitude so cirrus may be reported over polar regions at 10,000 ft, so it's possible that precipitation may fall from cirrus over high latitude regions.
What are two possible ways that raindrops fall?
Two possible ways for raindrops to fall:- One way is due to condensation The other way is due to the dashing of clouds
Why clouds not fall?
The clouds don't fall because they are very light
What kind of cloud does sleet fall from?
There are several types, including nimbostratus and different types of cumulus.
Can you walk on clouds?
" yeah. If you have the right equipment" Those were the last words from Keith "Flinn" McGastron who suffered dearly from trying to walk on clouds. So the answer is no; you can not walk on clouds if only Kieth knew that.... no. Water is made of water vapor. You would would fall right through.
Do clouds fall?
no
Can you fall through a cloud?
No. because clouds are fluffy Um, ya i guess clouds are "fluffy" but thats not why we can't stand on them haha. Clouds are just made of water. thats pretty much it. water and air. now if u learn how to stand on air and/or water, then go for it! and that would be awesome! but i personally can't do that =(. so, no. it's not possible for people to stand on clouds.
