On Facebook the weather control theorists are out in force and arguing the two hurricanes that struck the southeast were CIA plots. Sadly such folks just don't understand the amount of energy involved; we cannot possible create such storms. I doubt we can even move them slightly.
The winds of an average hurricane can easily pack some 1.5 trillion watts of power, which is equivalent to about half the world's entire yearly electrical generating capacity. Does anybody really think we can create such a system using radio waves or sound waves or cloud seeding? There is way too much energy involved. Even if conditions are right it is an enormous mass of rotating air that has tobe energized. We do not have the technology, nor the energy, to do it.
But most of the theorists don't understand the physics involved.
Yes, we can have a very limited impact of weather. Cut down a forest and pave it over and the temperature increases. Build a lake and the temperature decreases. Build wind breaks and you stop the wind-drive erosion of land like we had during the Dustbowl years. But to create or direct a hurricane? Fuggitaboutit.
