Hailstones are lumps of ice. They can be as small as peas or as big as cricket balls! In Kansas, USA, a hailstone fell that was 44.5 centimetres across! Hail is formed when raindrops start to fall. Before they reach the ground, they are blown up into the clouds again by strong winds. There they freeze into balls of ice and the wind in the clouds bounces them up and down. As the frozen raindrops rise and fall like this, they get even more thickly covered in ice from the water inside the clouds. Eventually they get so heavy that they fall to the ground as hail. When big hailstones fall, they make quite a noise hitting roofs and pavements. Cars and buildings are damaged, and plants and crops are destroyed. Driving during a hailstorm is also very dangerous, as the roads become slippery. Грамматическую основу выписать
