Puerto Rico's cloud seeding operations are continuing while the government evaluates the data submitted so far, La Fortaleza confirmed in a statement reported Oct 22.[1] The island contracted the firm SOAR in early September for approximately $400,000 to run the operations, which were aimed at the drought pressing on local reservoirs.[2] The public account describes two things: the work is ongoing, and the government has not yet drawn a conclusion from what SOAR has turned in. What the data shows, and whether $400,000 moved any water into the reservoirs, is the part still under review.
