(24,801 posts)California Tries Cloud Seeding to Make Up for Unusually Dry Winter
by Julie M. Rodriguez, 01/10/14
For the second straight year, California has experienced unusually dry winter weather, leading desperate water agencies to try to make up for the shortfall using cloud seeding. By spraying fine particles of silver iodide into a cloud system, officials hope to cause water droplets in the clouds to form ice crystals and turn into snowflakes, increasing the annual amount of precipitation. While the practice has existed for decades, it has remained controversial due to doubts about its effectiveness and fears that it may cause extreme weather both worries that experts say are unfounded based on the latest research.

I'll put my money on a scientific solution over your woo any day of the week.
BTW - If you REALLY want to help with the drought, you can follow Gov Brown's call to cut back on your personal water use by 20%...but that might mean letting your flowers die.
