Predicting hailstorms and their severity remains a challenge for meteorologists. That’s why a groundbreaking ...

While most development occurs in a "sweet spot" between -10°C and -30°C where supercooled water is abundant, the study revealed hail embryos form across a surprisingly wide temperature range ...

In today’s episode of In The Clouds, we will dive deeper into the world of hail! So what is hail? Hail is a type of precipitation, like rain, snow, and sleet. In this form, it’s a solid chunk of ice ...

Although unlocking the secret of hailstone formation could help protect people in the path of dangerous storms, it helps to be able to identify that a storm is coming in the first place.

A correlation exists between a thunderstorm's updraft speeds and the size of hail it can produce. For example, non-severe hail up to nickel size will require updraft speeds less than 47 mph. For ...

HAIL FORMATION - Hailstones form in thunderstorms when the updraft lofts water droplets into the sub-freezing higher levels of the atmosphere where the droplets freeze.

Weather Whys: Hail Formation with Meteorologist Zavian ColónTop Stories: SNAP food assistance cuts Birthright citizenship arguments 100 years of McDonald's recipes Florida bans fluoride in water ...

A: Hail is caused when raindrops are lifted up into the atmosphere during a thunderstorm and then supercooled by temperatures below freezing, turning them into ice balls, says Dr. Dick Orville of ...

Powerful thunderstorms will roll through southern Colorado today. These storms will be isolated - so it will be feast or famine. Storms will begin over the Palmer Divide, progressing southeast.

The findings, published in Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, challenge long-held assumptions about hail formation and could lead to improved severe weather prediction.
