Description:The second phase of the Florida Area Cumulus Experiment (FACE-2), an attempt to confirm the indications of seeding-induced rain increases in FACE-1, is examined. A description of the program design and how well it was actually implemented in the summer experiments of 1978, 1979 and 1980 are provided. The data reduction process and its rationale are described both for the basic rainfall data and for the predictor variables to be used in the covariate analyses. The resulting FACE-2 rainfall and covariate data are presented for each of the 61 days of experimentation without knowledge of the treatment decisions. An upcoming paper, to be written after disclosure of the treatment decisions, will focus on an evaluation of the effects of seeding.
