Meteorologist Stevie Daniels explains how hail develops within a thunderstorm on Good Morning Maryland!
Firstly, you need a strong thunderstorm with a strong updraft and downdraft. Rain droplets enter the cold section of the mature thunderstorm and begin to freeze. They collide with super-cooled water droplets within the storm cloud and grow in size. When the hailstones become too heavy or the updraft weakens, then the hailstones fall to the surface.
