How a California cloud-seeding company became the center of a Texas flood conspiracy

Two days before the waters of the Guadalupe River swelled into a deadly and devastating Fourth of July flood in Kerr County, Texas, engineers with a California-based company called Rainmaker took off in an airplane about 100 miles away and dispersed 70 grams of silver iodide into a cloud. Their goal? To make it rain over Texas — part of a weather modification practice known as cloud seeding, which uses chemical compounds to augment water droplets inside clouds, making the drops large enough and heavy enough to fall to the ground.

Maybe MTG isn’t that crazy for commenting about this.

We need to find out who these people are and who's funding them. Don't go fricking with Mother Nature, she can be a bad witch

Chem trails are a conspiracy theory. The government can’t make it rain.

How many people have to suffer so California can figure out their water shortage problem? That's a little hyperbolic, I know, but one idea is to get rid of the illegals living there.

Not sure if serious...

Peter Theil is funding this company.

I watched an interview with the owner and he explained it all very well. If he was speaking truth, the cloud seeding had no impact on the thunderstorms.
I'd think the guy was speaking truthfully because anyone listening can easily fact check his explanation.

If you have the brain capacity there is an interview on the Shawn Ryan Show from a few weeks ago where he explains the details on this that MTG and MSM are afraid to talk about.
How are people supposed to know about this? The purpose of this board is to share information. And how does ignorance of this information make all of us retards?
There's a retard in the room alright, but I don't think it's the masses.

This you tube video has nothing to do with silver iodide, the hypothesized substance used to induce the rain.
This experiment is simple temperature gradient conditions and not feasible to be used at scale to “make rain”
So your statement about using a children’s experiment to make rain in this context shows a complete lack of comprehension, thus calling into question your intelligence and credibility as a commentator.

Muh "conspiracy." What "conspiracy"? Cloud seeding is 100% verifiably real and they were doing it in that area, with a company named "Rainmaker."

Exactly. So, stop being such a "conspiracy theorist," people! Nothing to see here.

Some of my partners over the years weren't all that bright but I don't think any of them were retarded.

Quote from EPA Sec Lee Zeldin on the Bennie Johnson show.
“ spraying chemicals in the sky is so unregulated, they don’t even have widespread procedures to stop them “

Here's the Rainmaker CEO saying why they didn't start the floods. I haven't watched it.

I was skeptical listening to that podcast. Augustus never answered how long silver iodide stays up there or if there’s any long term effects.
