Where does hail form?

Answer 1

Hail happens in areas with many cumulonimbus clouds, or an area where thunderstorms or tornadoes are most likely to happen. Hail forms in clouds, and the more water the cloud has absorbed, the bigger the hail pellets are going to be.

Answer 2

I personally heard/learned that it happens exactly where rain happens. It happens in the clouds, when rain or water droplets are frozen and they turn into ice/hail. I think it can also happen when the rain is in the process of falling out of the clouds and the air is really really cold by the clouds and so it turns into hail/ice.

Answer 3

Hail forms within strong thunderstorm clouds when updrafts carry water droplets high into the atmosphere where they freeze. As the frozen water droplets are carried up and down within the cloud by the storm's winds, they accumulate more ice layers, eventually becoming too heavy to remain suspended and falling to the ground as hail.

Answer 4

Hail forms inside cumulonimbus clouds in a thunderstorm.

Answer 5

Hi,

Hail like other forms of pricipitation forms when evaporation happens. Clouds are formed and they get so heavy that pricipitation falls to Earth. This is called the water cycle.

Answer 6

They usually occur in warm weather.
