Specialised aircraft or ground-based systems disperse particles into clouds, which act as nuclei for water droplets to form. These droplets then combine and grow until they fall as rain. The effectiveness of cloud seeding depends on factors like cloud type, atmospheric conditions, and the altitude at which the seeding occurs. Advanced aircraft, such as the Beechcraft 200, can reach altitudes of up to 25,000 feet, increasing the chances of successful precipitation.
