Rainfall links to artillery disturbances physics view
Scientists argue that heavy cannonading or other artificial disturbances do not create rain but may sharpen existing atmospheric factors. Rain requires three conditions: warm moist air, a colder air layer to condense moisture, and contact between air masses. Cannon fire might lower local temperature or disturb air, potentially hastening condensation but cannot by itself produce substantial rainfall. molecular energy from stirring subtly aids the condensation process.
