Fake. Made to be a distraction or entertainment.
Cloud seeding is done for ski resorts and crops in dry climates to “encourage“ marginal conditions to precipitate (and a few other cases).
Hygroscopic condensation nuclei is scattered in the atmosphere in hopes that moisture will condense and collect on the dust particles to cause rain or snow.
It does NOT cause a moderate rain shower to become an intense rain storm.
There was no need for seeding Helene. In fact, cloud seeding isn’t that effective.
Its intensity was feed by the warm gulf waters. Flooding was due to high tide and already-saturated ground and high ground water levels.
It was a horrible storm and caused terrible damage, but it was not man made or intensified by cloud seeding.
