Definition: Hail is precipitation in the form of lumps of ice and is usually associated with thunderstorms. Hailstones have a diameter of 5 millimetres (0.2 inches) or more, ranging from the size of a pea to a cherry, although they have been recorded as large as a grapefruit. Hail in Canada occurs most often during the summer months when thunderstorms are at their peak. Hail can cause extensive and expensive damage to agriculture and property.
