Abstract:
Abstract The most damaging hailstorm ever recorded moved from eastern Kansas to southern Illinois during an 8-h period on 10 April 2001, depositing 2.5- to 7.5-cm-diameter hailstones along a 585-km path. A classic long-lived supercell storm was the cause of the record hailfalls. The record-large hailswath size, large and often windblown hailstones, and movement over portions of the St. Louis and Kansas City urban areas led to $1.5 billion in insured losses. This tristate hailstorm and other adjacent hailstorms collectively created $1.9 billion in insured losses in a 2-day period, becoming the

The terminal velocity of hailstones is an essential quantity in hail research.

Several empirical models for various hailstone diameter ranges have been developed to calculate the velocity based on the diameter, indicating somewhat inconsistent results. The velocity is influenced by factors such as their density, drag coefficient, shape or air density, and strong

Abstract:
Abstract. The challenges associated with reliably observing and simulating hazardous hailstorms call for new approaches that combine information from different available sources, such as remote sensing instruments, observations, or numerical modelling, to improve understanding of where and when severe hail most often occurs. In this work, a proxy for hail frequency is developed by combining overshooting cloud top (OT) detections from the Meteosat Second Generation (MSG) weather satellite with convection-permitting High rEsolution ReAnalysis over Italy (SPHERA) reanalysis predictors describing

Abstract:
Abstract A climatology of severe hail (diameter equal to or exceeding approximately 1.5 cm) for Turkey is constructed from official severe weather reports from meteorological stations, newspaper archives, and Internet sources. The dataset consists of 1489 severe hail cases on 1107 severe hail days (days with at least one severe hail case) during 1925–2014. Severe hail was reported most often in the 1960s, followed by a decrease until the 2000s, and an ensuing increase in the past decade. Severe hail is most likely to occur in the afternoon and evening, and in spring and summer, particularly Ma

Abstract:
On the night of 1 June 2021, the northern region of Maputo and Matola city was buffeted by hailstorms of various sizes, the most predominant ranging from 0.5 cm - 4.5 cm. This study aims to analyze the impacts of hailstorms on urban horticulture in the northern strip of Maputo City and Matola. We also observed the effects on domestic horticultural production in some neighbourhoods affected by hailstorms. A mixed methodology was chosen, supported by the following methods and techniques: bibliographical and documental research, direct observation, measurement of the dimension and characteristics

Abstract:
Extreme weather and climate variability have become a subject of big concern worldwide. In response, efforts have been made to evaluate the trends in climatic parameters in two geographical regions of India – Northeast (NER) and West coast region (WCR) for the period 1901-2009. This paper studies trends in cyclones and depressions, floods and droughts, thunderstorms, hailstorms, the number of fog and poor visibility days in the research areas. A detailed analysis indicates a mixed trend for cyclones and depressions, flood and drought events. Moderate and severe cold waves also show a significa

Abstract:
Abstract Hail is one of the most damaging weather phenomena. Inflicted damage affects mostly agriculture, but also human settlements. The effects produced are mainly due to the size of the hailstones and the amount of fallen ice and, of course, to the vulnerability of the territory in which it occurs. The average number of hail days in Moldova increases from less than 1 day / year in the Barlad Plateau to over 6 days a year on the high mountain peaks. Studies at national or regional level in Romania have not addressed the problem of trajectories of hail cells with potential of generating hails

Abstract. The purpose of this study is the analysis of radar data, digitally recorded, during an operational hail suppression program in the region of Central Macedonia, Greece, for the warm period of the years 1997–2001. Kinematic characteristics, such as lifetime and distance traveled by hailstorms, as well as direction of motion and speed, have been related to type of storms and season. It has been found that singlecells are short-lived and travel short distances, while multicells are long-lived and travel long distances. On the contrary, their corresponding speed distributions are similar.

Abstract. RHAP (Rainfall events and Hailstorms Analysis Program) is a new tool designed for analysing rainfall events and hailstorms. The aim of this contribution is to present the RHAP tool, which is under development, and its application to different hailstorms and rainfall episodes. The program assimilates multiple data bases (meteorological radar, meteorological model outputs, radiosondes and surface observations) with the purpose to get better event reanalysis. It is based on Storm Cell Identification and Tracking Algorithm (SCIT) with an improved version of the method, and also on a new
