Oklahoma cloud seeding aims to boost rainfall in 8 counties
An emergency funded cloud seeding program in southwest Oklahoma plans to seed eight counties including Beckham, Custer, Greer, and Tillman to increase watershed rainfall. Ground generators and airplane dispersion use silver iodide and hygroscopic agents, with a Krick Associates program in Lawton and a nationwide multi state effort under consideration. The operation includes rain gauges, radar, and monitoring to gauge effectiveness while farmers and communities seek water relief.
