Florida doesn’t particularly need cloud seeding(they get plenty of rain and don’t need to increase snowpack on the mountains they don’t have), so it’s kind of a useless exercise. The places that do do it mostly seem to be wasting their time though.
Cloud seeding is only a couple steps above dowsing in its efficacy. It rarely works to do anything. There is a basic principle that is true regarding cloud condensation nuclei, but the methods are so haphazard that it’s still mostly just “doing something” to make people feel better. It’s basically our equivalent of the Mayan elite rituals encouraging rains for the corn harvest.
