It is all spelled out in the Bible, though most will refuse to take note that everything predicted is coming true right in front of their eyes.

Quote:In 2025, US aerospace forces can "own the weather" by capitalizing on emerging technologies and focusing development of those technologies to war-fighting applications. Such a capability offers the war fighter tools to shape the battlespace in ways never before possible. It provides opportunities to impact operations across the full spectrum of conflict and is pertinent to all possible futures. The purpose of this paper is to outline a strategy for the use of a future weathermodification system to achieve military objectives rather than to provide a detailed technical road map.

Current technologies that will mature over the next 30 years will offer anyone who has the necessary resources the ability to modify weather patterns and their corresponding effects, at least on the local scale. Current demographic, economic, and environmental trends will create global stresses that provide the impetus necessary for many countries or groups to turn this weather-modification ability into a capability. In the United States, weather-modification will likely become a part of national security policy with both domestic and international applications. Our government will pursue such a policy, depending on its interests, at various levels. These levels could include unilateral actions, participation in a security framework such as NATO, membership in an international organization such as the UN, or participation in a coalition. Assuming that in 2025 our national security strategy includes weather-modification, its use in our national military strategy will naturally follow. Besides the significant benefits an operational capability would provide, another motivation to pursue weather-modification is to deter and counter potential adversaries.

In this paper we show that appropriate application of weather-modification can provide battlespace dominance to a degree never before imagined. In the future, such operations will enhance air and space superiority and provide new options for battlespace shaping and battlespace awareness.[1] "The technology is there, waiting for us to pull it all together;"[2] in 2025 we can "Own the Weather."

In extreme cases, it might involve the creation of completely new weather patterns, attenuation or control of severe storms, or even alteration of global climate on a far-reaching and/or long-lasting scale.

Something has felt off about some of the storms moving through here. Sometimes the thunder doesn’t sound right. I can’t figure out what sounds wrong about it but it just doesn’t sound like it should. I also noticed that the area where tornadoes usually touch down has shifted to the east somewhat. 

I’ve often wondered if it is being manipulated somehow or if it’s part some occurrence that happens every few thousand years.

Personally, I believe we should have never been messing with the weather to start with.  The earth goes through cycles, which are more than likely normal.

But if we start messing with it, then the cycles get thrown out of whack, and then we end up in big trouble.


And of course, building a city in the middle of a desert, doesn't help either, along with diverting rivers.

We just screw everything up.

This year, we've gotten a lot of rain so far, but it's been a gentle, soaking sort of rain as opposed to the typical violent flooding sorts of spring storms we get, and that's been good for gardens from what I can see around me. The rain is falling slow enough to soak in and provide for the crops rather than too fast, which results in runoff and flooding.

Right now, we are in the midst of about a week of gentle rains, and we've only had one light flood so far all year - none of the gully-washers we are typically subjected to.
