California tries cloud seeding to ease drought and fires
California officials pursue cloud seeding amid drought and fires. Radar monitors 1000 miles of coast as planes seed clouds from Redding, Sacramento, and the San Joaquin Valley. The Bureau of Reclamation notes possible snowfall increases but warns seeding only affects part of a cloud while other methods like pollution and fires can also trigger rain.
