On Saturday, rainfall of 5 to 8 mm is expected in Shaanxi and Henan provinces. Other drought-affected regions will receive light rainfalls on Saturday and Feb 12, according to meteorological reports. Meteorological agencies in these areas are prepared to artificially precipitate rain when conditions permit, Zhai said. "On average, artificial precipitation can increase the amount of rainfall by 18 percent."
