How can you tell if you are seeing a cumulonimbus cloud, or nibostratus clouds?

it is raining here, and i don't know how to tell if what i'm looking at it a cumulonimbus or nimbostratus cloud. it was hailing a couple minutes ago if that helps. i was just wondering what (if any) are the tell-tale signs of either cloud. what things to look for when identifying the type of cloud, and etc. thank you so much.How can you tell if you are seeing a cumulonimbus cloud, or nibostratus clouds?
If there is hail present, then it is a cumulonimbus as these clouds have a strong updraft that helps create hail. If there was a way to get out from under the actual cloud, you would be able to see the towering cloud and it's features.
