Are you implying that they can control the weather?

Just learned that the facility has busses arranged to take everyone to Gainesville if needed. So you hunker down (or try to pass off your family as staff and get on the bus)

I agree. It’s very very odd. After my half a century, I never have seen anything like this.


Almost like the climate is changing or something

The earth tilts on its axis. It’s been that way for millions of years.

I mean…… the govt used cloud seeding in nam to wash out Charlie from his holes?

don’t get mad at me when the government admits it

quote:

SUBJECT Weather Modification in North Vietnam and Laos (Project Popeye) Proposal 1. The Department of Defense has requested our approval to initiate the operational phase of Project Popeye in selected areas (map at clip)2 along the infiltration routes in North Vietnam and southern Laos. The objective of the program is to produce sufficient rainfall along these lines of communication to interdict or at least interfere with truck traffic between North and South Vietnam. Recently improved cloud seeding techniques would be applied on a sustained basis, in a non-publicized effort to induce continued rainfall through the months of the normal dry season.



quote:

During the test phase, more than 50 cloud seeding experiments were conducted. The results are viewed by DOD as outstandingly successful.
(a) 82% of the clouds seeded produced rain within a brief period after seeding—a percentage appreciably higher than normal expectation in the absence of seeding.
(b) The amount of rainfall induced by seeding is believed to have been sufficient to have contributed substantially to rendering vehicular routes in this area inoperable. Since the end of the rainy season, the communists have failed to undertake route repairs and there has been no vehicular traffic.
(c) In one instance, the rainfall continued as the cloud moved eastward across the Vietnam border and inundated a U.S. Special Forces camp with nine inches of rain in four hours.
(d) DOD scientists consider that the experiment demonstrated a capacity to raise and maintain rainfall under controlled conditions to the level at which the land is saturated over a sustained period, slowing movement on foot and rendering the operation of vehicles impracticable.

Ha lost cause on this site. All these once in a lifetime events happening more and more every year and all the scientist on this site will tell just normal stuff made up by the government.

Isn’t this only the second time a hurricane has done what Milton has done? Is that happening every year?

It is rare, but not unheard of.

Here's a good rundown:
