A thunder storm produces precipitation in the form of ice particles that are about 6 millimeters in diameter. what type of precipitation would this be?

The precipitation produced by a thunderstorm in the form of ice particles approximately 6 millimeters in diameter is known as hail. Hail forms within strong thunderstorms when updrafts carry water droplets upward into extremely cold areas of the atmosphere, causing them to freeze. As these ice particles are repeatedly lifted and dropped, they can accumulate layers of ice before eventually falling to the ground as hailstones.
