US Patent Issued to Peter Cordani on July 22 for "Method of modifying weather with altitude targeting drop bags" (Florida Inventors)

ALEXANDRIA, Va., July 23 -- United States Patent no. 12,364,212, issued on July 22, was assigned to Peter Cordani (Jupiter, Fla.).

"Method of modifying weather with altitude targeting drop bags" was invented by Peter Cordani (Jupiter, Fla.).
