# Hail
|

Hail is pieces of ice that fall from the sky during rain storms. Most hail is very small, only a few centimeters wide. However, it can be bigger than this. Some hail can be twenty centimeters wide and can weigh more than a kilogram. Hail destroys crops when it falls on them.

God sometimes sends hail to punish people when they have disobeyed him.
