Temperature determines the type of preciptation that falls. Most frozen precipitation requires either an upper level of low temperatures or low temperatures at ground level. Low temperatures are at or below freezing point. Hail may fall if there is severe thunderstorm activity, because water droplets are carried thousands of feet into the thundercloud and may become supercooled as they travel upwards, making hail pellets.
