For some unexplained reason there have been a large number of coronal holes on the surface of the sun, in low latitude positions during solar magnetic cycle 24, however due to the reduction in the solar wind density the solar wind bursts have less effect on cloud modulation which explains why there has suddenly be an increase sea ice in the Antarctic, a recovery of sea ice in the Arctic, and an inhibiting of the formation of El Niño events.

If the ice is a lower temperature than the liquid water, and as a general rule ice usually is colder than liquid water, then the ice emits less infrared radiation.
When oceans get cold, and the surface of polar waters freezes, it snows much less and the sun takes away ice and limites the lower bound of temperature and sea level.

Hailstones are created so it is believed, by a more or less continuous loop of being caught in violent updrafts as found in thunderstorms, ie; above glider example, and then falling out of the updraught cell back down to lower levels where they might be caught up again in another or the same updraft cell and so accumulate water and ice on the core of the frozen hailstone over a period of anywhere from just one passage in the updraft to a number of passages which can be ascertained and recognised by the number of rings when a hailstone is dissected across its diameter.
