And if rain starts being taken away from other areas then we just shoot the lasers there as well. @iamwho2k – It would just most likely be over the sea.

But I wonder if it's possible to prevent rain by spotting the clouds the same way. In some cities in Southern Philippines, it is very common to hit the clouds with light beams (laser?) supposedly to prevent rain esp. when there's a scheduled festivity, and to protect prawn farms. Is this true? We need rain around here, esp. with the El Niño.... This is interesting. But I wonder if it’s possible to prevent rain by spotting the clouds the same way.

One of the issues the professor brought up was, paraphrasing, "Sure, you can make it rain here, but then you've just taken away the rain from some other part of the map." Think about it.
