Question
Why don’t we get hailstones frequently?
✓

Answer

For the formation of hailstones the following 2 conditions are required:
  • Intense heating which results in upwards air flow.
  • The decrease in air temperature at higher layers of the atmosphere.
  • As India is a tropical country, we do not find cooler air at higher levels because of the intense heating of land.
