SIOUX CITY, Iowa (KCAU) — It’s day 4 of Severe Weather Awareness Week here at KCAU 9 and today’s topic is hail and wind safety!Hailstones are formed when raindrops are carried up and down inside the storm cloud by thunderstorm updrafts. These raindrops collide into extremely cold areas of the atmosphere and then freeze. These hailstones grow larger afterward, by colliding with supercooled liquid droplets from the cloud.
