They dumped silver nitrate on the clouds the day before so that would become heavy and rain.
This technology is widely known and was developed in the 1980s.
Its nothing to do with the water droplets trails that planes leave behind.
Rereading my comment, I get the responses now. With the "No," I meant to affirm that I know what contrails are and I know ie. silver nitrate being sprayed from a plane wouldn't seem visible like an contrail.
I should've phrased it better.
