See those clouds out today? They’re helping alleviate drought! ☁️☁️☁️
Cloud seeding is a safe, effective way to increase precipitation by about 10%, which makes it great for areas of chronic drought like here.
So, how does it work? When conditions are optimal, @driscience adds a tiny amount of dust into existing storm clouds, stimulating them to formulate more ice crystals which fall as snowflakes ❄️.

Not all storms are created equal. If you thought @DRIScience seeded *every* natural snow and rainstorm, you're about to be surprised!
Though there's plenty of precipitation on tap today, the 24/7 meteorologists at DRI said it's a bit too warm to seed for effective snowpack accumulation.
They will continue to monitor the temps and cross our fingers for the opportunity to squeeze about 10% more “juice” out of these storm clouds. But, as of this morning seeding is on pause so let’s all grab a cup of coffee and enjoy the peaceful sounds of mountain rain.

DID YOU KNOW: Cloud seeding has been increasing precipitation in drought-stricken areas since the 1940's?
It's proven safe, uses natural and non-toxic compounds and has the ability to stimulate about 10% more snow or rain. Learn more by Desert Research Institute Institute.
And, P.S. - who caught some good pictures of the beautiful dustings of snow in the canyon early this morning? Share them w#snows#makeitsnowm#cloudseedingo#precipitationc#DRIscienced#environmentalsciencet#droughte#happyplantsa#welovesnoww#redrockcanyonr#saveredrockaveredrock ... See MoreSee Less

We know lots of you are curious about how cloud seeding works and if it's safe (thank you for caring about Mother Nature). DRI wrote a great detailed overview of its history and process, so you can see just how safe and simple it all really is. Read on!

How much dust does @DRIscience use to seed the clouds, you ask? This much! 🤏
It only takes a tiny amount of finely ground silver iodide (a naturally-occuring, non-toxic compound found in the rocks of the Silver State) to stimulate existing storm clouds, and offer us a bit more precipitation.
Check out the DRI Science website or the *link in our bio* to learn all about how it works, and thanks to our Advisory Board member and @DRIScience researcher Jesse Juchtzer for showing us how such a little bit goes a long way!

This Winter we've received funding for not one, but TWO cloud seeders! Last year our project wDesert Research Instituteitute was such a huge success that the state agreed to fund cloud seeding for the next two years. That allowed us to add a new generator to our mix and help regenerate the aquifer and stabilize the eco-system at our favorite National Conservation ARed Rock Canyon National Conservation Area Area
Today is the first day of this winter season that the scientists have fired up the seeder, to potentially increase the expected precipitation. We will keep you closely informed of the results. In the meantime, get out there and smell the fresh rain! ... See MoreSee Less

Happy winter solstice! 📸We caught the sun settling down over Red Rock yesterday for the earliest time this year at 4:31pm. Since this is the shortest day of the year, it only gets brighter from here! After this, the days will get longer at the rate of about one minute a day, or one half hour every month until summer solstice in June. Until then, enjoy your added bonus brightness every day! ☀️ ...

Love watching birds? Well, 'tis the season for the Christmas Bird Count, one of the world's oldest and longest-running citizen science efforts. Every year from Dec. 14 - Jan. 5, citizens organize into circles and help count the birds they see in one day. Data is compiled, and used to learn about long-term bird trends, or in our case the health of our riparian areas.
