Florida Attorney General Orders Airports to Report ‘Weather Modification’ Activities

FLORIDA, JUL 15 – Violations of Florida's new law banning weather modification at public airports carry felony charges and fines up to $100,000, with monthly reporting required starting October 1.

  • On Monday, AG James Uthmeier directed all public-use airports to enforce the ban on weather modification, requiring monthly reports starting October 1.
  • Earlier this year, legislators passed SB 56, which bans weather modification activities, including cloud seeding, with penalties up to $100,000 and felony charges.
  • In his letter, Uthmeier wrote `the skies belong to the people`, emphasizing enforcement of Florida's weather modification ban with penalties for non-compliance.
  • Uthmeier emphasized that Florida’s skies should remain free, followed by Orlando International Airport spokeswoman saying the airports will comply.
  • Failure to report may reshape air travel and perceptions, potentially impacting future air travel infrastructure and public perception of Florida travel safety.
