Ermm..well, when you google the definition of 'hail' this is what you get :
"pellets of frozen rain that fall in showers from cumulonimbus clouds."
So...I was kinda thinking A or B. Idek if I'm correct though *~*

I'd go with B because
A: it falls from a layer of frozen air, not through.
B: it starts out as droplets of slushy water, which clump together, freeze slightly, then freeze again.
C: not only winter, and they fall from cumulonimbus, not stratus.
D: this one is extremely obvious.
