Fewer Hailstorms but Bigger Hailstones: Climate Change Shifts Europe's Severe Weather Risks
A study predicts fewer hailstorms overall under high emissions but a rise in very large, damaging hail, especially in Southern Europe, posing increased risks to property and crops.

Climate change brings Europe fewer but heavier hailstones, experts find
Researchers have modelled the outcome for how hailstorms will develop under global warming.
Fewer hailstorms but bigger hailstones: Climate change shifts Europe's severe weather risks - Tech and Science Post
Warming may lead to less frequent but bigger and more devastating hail storms, new research has shown. Climate experts from Newcastle University, the Met Office and the University of Bristol used European-wide km-scale simulations to model future changes to hail with global warming. Published in the journal Nature Communications, the findings show that, under a high-emissions scenario (RCP8.5), severe hail is likely to become less common, except…
