Frozen rain. During thunderstorms, clouds are stirred by electricity into the high-altitude ice and snow zone, condensing into ice particles and snowflakes, which then spin and combine into ice pellets that fall mixed with rain. Small ones are like beans, large ones are like fists. They can damage crops and livestock.
