Hail is possible within most thunderstorms as it is produced by cumulonimbi, and within 2 nautical miles (3.7 km) of the parent storm. Hail formation requires environments of strong, upward motion of air with the parent thunderstorm (similar to tornadoes) and lowered heights of the freezing level.ny thunderstorm which produces hail that reaches the ground is known as a hailstorm. Hail has a diameter of 5 millimetres (0.20 in) or more. Hailstones can grow to 15 centimetres (6 in) and weigh more than 0.5 kilograms (1.1 lb). Unlike ice pellets, hailstones are layered and can be irregular and clumped together.
An advanced methodology for predicting. wind and hail probability. In the U.S., convective stormsâstorms generated by heat from the earth and extreme. moistureâare frequent if not daily occurrences. These storms produce strong winds that. may generate tornados and hail, as well as heavy rains that can also cause localized floods. However, prior to 2011 when the nation experienced a severe spike in weather-related. events, most insurers and reinsurers considered loss from severe wind and hail a cost. of doing business.
