Cloud Seeding in Idaho with Kresta Davis
Manage episode 431036119 series 3584190
Kresta Davis is the Senior Manager of Water Resources for Idaho Power. Idaho Power utilizes cloud seeding to gain more precipitation out of passing winter storms during the winter months. This program is overseen by the Idaho Water Resource Board and has been in operation for roughly three decades. This is a hugely informative episode that brought to light a program that I have never really understood. Enjoy!
