Cloud seeding carried out in Johor, Melaka, Negri Sembilan until Sept 24

Cloud seeding operations are underway in Johor, Melaka, and Negri Sembilan through September 24 in an effort to replenish dwindling dam levels, according to the National Disaster Management Agency (Nadma). The initiative seeks to restore dam storage to optimal levels, ensuring a steady water supply and the long-term sustainability of water resources, Kosmo reported.

Nadma emphasized the importance of the integrated approach in guaranteeing continuous water supply, resource sustainability, and providing a safeguard against potential haze incidents. However, the agency noted that the effectiveness of the cloud seeding operations depends on favorable atmospheric conditions and the presence of suitable cloud formations.

Nadma also appealed to the public to pray for the success of the operation, hoping it will result in much-needed rainfall for the benefit of the populace.
