droplets tum to ice crystals if there's also a catalyst present, in the form of tiny particles of solid matter. lce forms around the particles, and supercooled water continues to coat them. They grow into rounded icy masses, becoming hailstones when they reach a diameter of 5 millimeters. Hailstones hit the ground with a loud rattle when they hit buildings and roads. Think of a hailstorm as a giant pummeling machine. It can be the most damaging part of a thunderstorm because of the damage it causes to crops.
