Abstract: SYNOPSIS From a study of all available hailstorm records from one hundred and fifty cooperative Weather Bureau stations and the regular Weather Bureau stations in Nebraska it was found that the average number of hailstorms during the season April to September. The greatest number of hailstorms occur about a month later than the time of greatest rate of temperature increase in spring. The greatest number of thunderstorms is in June and the fewest in April. Although hail does not occur without a thunderstorm, but 7.2 per cent of all thunderstorms is accompanied by hail. The percentage is largest in April and least in August. Reports of hailstorms as large as hens' eggs, or even larger, are frequent, and although storms of such intensity are local, they cause considerable damage.
