When there is a strong updraft in the lower portions of the storm cell, the rain can be lifted back up into the upper atmosphere where it freezes. When it becomes too heavy to lift, the ice chip falls back down, where it is glazed in more water and then lifted again by the updraft. This cycle repeats until the hail is too big for the updraft to lift again.
