Cloud seeding starts

HYDRO Tasmania has started its cloud-seeding program for 2012 and it will run until the end of October. University studies have shown an increase of at least 5% in monthly rainfall over seeded  catchment areas.

Local catchment areas to be seeded this year are Lakes Gordon and Pedder, Great Lake, Lake King William, Lake St Clair and Lake Echo, as well as Lakes Rowallan and Lake Mackintosh.

Hydro storages are currently 48 per cent, which is about 5% higher than the same time last year. Find out more about cloud seeding here.
