There can be a rain-wrapped tornado. This means there’s not an actually visible condensation cloud, the ground is obscured by rain and/or hail or even both with no visual evidence of it on the surface.
Does hail mean a tornado is coming?
Hail can be a sign that a tornado is coming If you notice that hail is falling from the sky, which is not coming from directly above, rather it is coming more at an angle sideways. This can only mean that the hail is being displaced by the tornado and the hail is projected due to the centrifugal force produced by the tornado.
Not always, but possibly. Since large hail often appears near the area within a thunderstorm where tornadoes are most likely to form, you should assume a tornado could be nearby and seek appropriate shelter. Where can I find data on hail storms? The National Climatic Data Center is the official archive for all U., and weather events.
Some people believe that hail, wind, or lightning will always precede a tornado, but that is not always the case, though large hailstones and other inclement weather do often occur beforehand. Another belief is that if you observe the readings on a barometer suddenly dropping, you can expect a tornado to soon form.
You may be asking “Is a green sky a sign of a tornado or hail?”
However, there is no evidence to prove that a green sky is a sure sign of a tornado or hail. It is however a warning sign, as it shows that a thunderstorm is most likely coming, and it could be a strong storm.
Can hail damage from a tornado be repaired?
Many times, hail damage is also associated with tornadoes due to the varying temperature conditions in the storm. Your safety is our concern. The car can be repaired using paintless dent repair.

Why does hail not grow at the top of a thunderstorm?
Hailstones also do not grow from being lofted to the top of the thunderstorm. At very high altitudes, the air is cold enough (below -40°F) that all liquid water will have frozen into ice, and hailstones need liquid water to grow to an appreciable size. How does hail fall to the ground?
