When supercooled water droplets inside clouds freeze into layered crystalline ice pellets, what is this phenomenon called?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Hail

Correct answer: B, hail. Hail forms inside strong thunderclouds, usually when powerful upward air currents carry water droplets to very cold heights. The droplets freeze, and additional supercooled water may freeze around them in layers. When the ice pellets become too heavy for the updraft to support, they fall to the ground as hail. A, fine snowfall, consists mainly of snow crystals or flakes and does not normally form as hard layered pellets. C, dew, forms when water vapour condenses on a cool surface near the ground, not inside a storm cloud. D, surface fog is a cloud at ground level made of tiny liquid droplets, not falling ice. Memory cue: hail is hard ice falling from a storm cloud; snow is made of delicate ice crystals.
