Yes, in Asia there have been deaths in sufficient numbers due to freak hailstorms. [1][2] Guess this has something to do with the first knock-off itself. [1]

- ekianjo 13y agoCan hail storms be predicted accurately by the way ?
- monsterix 13y agoPossibly. 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.
