D-G: Clear blue skies mean cloud seeding not possible


KUALA LUMPUR: Cloud seeding could not be carried out in the worst hit areas for haze recently in Peninsula Malaysia because there were no suitable clouds, said Meteorological Department director-general Che Gayah Ismail.

The department’s radar system, she said, could not locate suitable clouds to induce condensation to produce rain.
