You’d been talking about fire... I’m not clear on where hail fits here, unless it was brimstone hail.
Exodus 9:23-25 says that God sent thunder and hail, as well as fire mingled with hail.
1 Samuel 7:10 shows the fire/thunder connotation in a different way, such as when Samuel was offering a burnt sacrifice, God “thundered” upon the Philistines when they were ready to attack.
