Hail typically falls during thunderstorms when strong updrafts carry raindrops into colder regions of the atmosphere where they freeze into ice pellets.
Hail can form in clouds over the ocean, but it typically melts before reaching the surface due to the warmer ocean temperatures. If hail does fall into the ocean, it quickly melts and blends with the water.
Ice crystals that fall from the sky are called snowflakes.
Hailstorms are most common in regions with strong thunderstorms, typically in the central United States, known as "Hail Alley." This area includes states like Nebraska, Colorado, and Wyoming, where conditions are favorable for the formation of large hailstones.
sleet
Yes, rain is typically colder than hail because rain is liquid water, while hail is frozen water. Hail forms when raindrops are carried into colder regions of the atmosphere where they freeze, resulting in ice pellets that can fall to the ground.

Hail is unlikely to fall in winter due to colder temperatures not conducive to the formation of hailstorms.
sometimes it isn't cold enough for the hail to fall in it's ice form.

The heaviest hail on record (currently) is 132 grams.
Yes. Although it is relatively rare, Maine can get hail.
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.
No, hail doesn't fall in tornadoes, but it often falls near them.
Hail forms when updrafts in thunderstorms carry raindrops into colder regions of the atmosphere. As the raindrops freeze, they grow in size and eventually fall to the ground as hailstones. Hail is typically associated with cumulonimbus clouds, which are large, towering clouds that produce thunderstorms.
