SUMMARY: THE HAIL IN BOSNIA AND HERZEGOVINA. The hail, as unfavourable metereologic phenomen is represented over Bosna and Herzegovina for the period 1960-1979. as the distribution in the course of the year, the summer and the month june. In the year distribution, by hail frequency, the zone from Majevica to Bjelašnica and from the valley of Bosna to Drina (more than 30 times) is exceled. The plain part of Bosna has increged number of days with hail (10-20). The smallest frequency of hail is in Herzegovina, central Bosna and Krajina (3-10 times).

The greatest number of hail appe rancesais in Mostar (57), and the smallest one is in Kalinovik, Jablanica and Berkovići everyone 3 times.

The greatest appearance of Rail is in the summer (374 times or 54,5 %). The maximal frequency is an june with 147 days or 24,4 %. This is the consequence off passing by the cold fronts, the heating, the air and forest cover. The conditions for the hail creating are much favourable with higher altitude, the degree of afforestation and atmosphere humidity and with the presence of termic asymmetry of air masses.
