[QUOTE="eyexer, post: 301566, member: 315"] it's strictly about hail prevention. but it comes at a price. I believe there are only three counties in ND that allow it anymore. I have not seen where any counties that got rid of it are talking about bringing it back. When they perform this seeding it appears to suppress hail. But it also appears to cause these storms to dump all their moisture in a very short time thus preventing any of that moisture from being spread out over a broad range like they normally would. It's absolutely amazing to watch this. You can see these storms coming across montana for a very long time. Staying the same size or growing as they come across eastern MT. Soon as they hit the border they are seeded and by the time they hit my house, ten miles inside the border, the damn rain is done completely. Happens time after time. I watch the planes come out. I can see where they are seeding and I watch the radar. It's mind boggling how fast the storm dissipates and the rain disappears. This isn't a couple time fluke. I've been watching this very seriously for the past seven years. I never had a clue how effective this process is. What's crazy is you can watch the north end of these storms that stay up in Divide County continue on a dump rain for hours but the south part that hits williams county just dies off immediately.
