U.S. Patent 5,556,029
A method of dissipating hydrometeors (clouds) that includes transmitting electromagnetic radiation (e.g., light energy, from the sun, for example) that is absorbed by water vapor into the cloud to be dissipated and continuing the transmission of such energy into the cloud until it dissipates. The source of electromagnetic radiation can be a large mirror located on the surface of the earth, that reflects sunlight into the cloud to be dissipated. In a still more specific embodiment of the invention, the wind speed, direction, cloud altitude and sun movement relative to the earth is tracked to determine the mirror orientation and tracking necessary to disperse a particular cloud or clouds. In addition, an array of earth-mounted mirrors could be utilized in a coordinated fashion to dissipate a group or larger volume of clouds |

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Hydrometeors, as used herein, means atmospheric water clouds, composed of large numbers of water droplets or ice crystals that are virtually suspended in the atmosphere. As used herein throughout this disclosure, the term "cloud" means an atmospheric water cloud or hydrometeor. The water or ice in a hydrometeor occupies only a small fraction of the total space appearing as the hydrometeor. It would be desirable to have a method of dissipating or eliminating clouds or hydrometeors. For example, it is desirable in some cases to eliminate clouds to maximize the amount of direct sunlight impinging on a particular area or region of the earth. Alternatively, on a small scale, it is desirable to reduce the size of a cloud or to dissipate it completely, for purposes of amusement or scientific curiosity.
