PETALING JAYA: Cloud seeding operations will be put on hold for a few days as the country is seeing near daily thunderstorms and showers of the inter-monsoon season, even if the levels in the dams in Klang Valley are not showing any signs of increasing.

National weather centre director Muham­mad Helmi Abdullah said cloud seeding was unnecessary given the current rainfall patterns.
