basically government patented a technique of seeding undercooled clouds. Which are turned into ice particles by the introduction of finely distributed silver iodide (the secret ingredient).

Whereby in certain circumstances an increase of the rainfall can be attained, or in other cases the formation of hail is made more difficult, and in circumstances even a weakening of the electric phenomena attendant a thunderstorm is attained.

The silver iodide has been either atomized on the ground by means of so called ground generators and distributed in the atmosphere under the assumption that the seeding material is entrained into the range of the clouds to be seeded by updraft, or alternatively it has been ferried directly into the clouds to be seeded by means of aircraft, rockets or artillery missiles.

What an absolute joke
