عاصفة البّرّد / عاصِفَةٌ بَرَدِيَّة
Yes, "عاصفة بردية" or "عاصفة بَرَد". It rarely happens in Egypt, but it is common or at least known in Syria and Lebanon.

I just was wondering why dictionaries translate hailstorm as عاصفة الثلج while this translation is inaccurate!
https://www.arabdict.com/en/english-arabic/hailstorm
Maybe the weather was cold in old-time Egypt.

Allāh (s.w.t.) told nabī Mūsā, "Stretch your hand towards the sky. Hail will rain everywhere in the land of Miṣr, on the people, on the animals and on all the plants that are growing."
