Can hail storms be predicted accurately by the way ?



Possibly. There exist weather modelling and prediction techniques to assess the risk of hailstorm. A typical weather agency does do that already [1].

The key challenge here would always be to inform the disconnected locals in millions within a small area or region. A lot of equations fail when you consider the population density and economics of an average or below average citizen in Asia.
