- Map Shows States With Cloud-Seeding Programs in Place
Weather modification, commonly referred to as cloud seeding, is an eco-friendly method used to increase precipitation—such as rain or snow—from clouds, according to the North American Weather

The process involves “seeding” existing clouds with a harmless substance called silver-iodide to give water droplets a particle to converge around, allowing them to form an ice crystal
- Cloud seeding - Wikipedia
Cloud seeding is a type of weather modification that aims to change the amount or type of precipitation, mitigate hail, or disperse fog The usual objective is to increase rain or snow, either for its own sake or to prevent precipitation from occurring in days afterward
- What is cloud seeding? Heres what it can—and cant—do to the weather
Cloud seeding works by releasing compounds that bind to water molecules, forcing them to fall to the ground as rain or snow
- Cloud Seeding - What It Is and Whether It Works
Cloud seeding aims at producing rain or snow by introducing particles into clouds that act as condensation nuclei and promote precipitation The practice dates back to the 1940s

- Need To Know: Geoengineering and Cloud Seeding - State of the Planet
Cloud seeding to increase precipitation and snowpack has been around since the 1940’s This is typically referred to as “weather modification”, since the focus is on a short term (on the scale of hours) increase in rainfall or snow
- Cloud Seeding Technology: Assessing Effectiveness and Other Challenges
Cloud seeding is a decades-old approach to modifying weather that uses a range of supporting technologies for research and operations According to NOAA, the most common uses of cloud seeding are to increase precipitation or suppress hail, usually by adding tiny particles of silver iodide
