 - Arabia Weather - Clouds consist of minuscule water droplets or ice crystals formed when water vapor in the atmosphere cools and condenses around microscopic particles of dust or salt suspended in the air Without these particles, known as condensation or ice nuclei, raindrops or snowflakes cannot develop, and precipitation will not occur.

Cloud seeding is a method of weather modification that enhances a cloud's capacity to generate rain or snow by introducing minute ice nuclei into specific types of subfreezing clouds. These nuclei serve as a foundation for the formation of snowflakes. Following cloud seeding, the newly formed snowflakes rapidly accumulate and descend from the clouds to the Earth's surface, augmenting snowpack and stream flow.
