雹或冰雹（英语：Hail）属于突发性天然灾害，是一种固态降水物，是圆形或圆锥形的冰块，由透明层和不透明层相间组成；直径一般为 5～50毫米，大的则可达到10厘米以上，直径5毫米以下的叫霰。

冰雹是在对流云所形成的积雨云中形成，当水汽随气流上升遇冷会凝结成小水滴，若随着高度增加温度继续降低，达到摄氏零度以下时，水滴就凝结成冰粒；在它上升运动过程中，并会吸附其周围小冰粒或水滴而增大，直到因其重量增加而下降，当其降落至较高温度区时，其表面会融解成水；同时亦会吸附周围的小水滴，此时若又遇强大之上升气流再被抬升，其凝结成冰粒又不断凝结变大，直到因自身重量而下落，若降到地面时未融化解成水则仍呈固态的冰粒或冰雹。

Hail is a form of solid precipitation. It is distinct from American sleet (called ice pellets outside of the United States), though the two are often confused. It consists of balls or irregular lumps of ice, each of which is called a hailstone. Sleet (ice pellets) falls generally in cold weather while hail growth is greatly inhibited during cold surface temperatures.
