Warmer Planet, Bigger Hail: Scientific Link

from Aspen News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!

Climate change is fueling more frequent and intense hailstorms, according to new research from Northern Illinois University. Warmer temperatures lead to increased moisture in the air, creating stronger updrafts that push water droplets higher into the freezing atmosphere. These droplets freeze, grow larger, and eventually fall as massive hailstones. This phenomenon has been linked to climate change before, and as the planet continues to warm, we can expect more of these powerful storms.
