Dropping chems into the clouds to help prevent hail from happening.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Sorta. It's to generate small hail before the big, destructive ones have a chance to build up.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
That was one of the most pissed off storms I have ever seen here in 16 years. But the hail stop guys/gals earned their $$$ last night for sure. It appeared they were trying to DIRECT the storm to the North, which it appeared to do after an hour.
ChemTrails bro. They release silver iodide into clouds, which trickles down and allows the government to read our minds!!This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
But seriously, I can't help but wonder if the compounds they do release ends up in our drinking water.

I dont think it has the ability to re-route storms.. I do think that Calgary has a bit of a shield to storms due to the heat-island effect, has to be pretty big to break into it.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Yea redirecting a storm sounds kindof like trying to boil the ocean lol

Silver iodide - yes, it absolutely ends up in our drinking water - but at super low concentrations (not that I claim any amount is or isnt toxic)This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Silver is a pretty safe substance. There's multiple studies showing no impact on the environment. This isn't ddt they're spraying - it's a naturally occurring compound. Bow river carries levels in the 0.001 mg/L range already from naturally occurring errosion.
It rained on Trumps parade. Shoulda done the China thing and nuked the clouds beforehand.

What’s this thing about a tornado? Didn’t get a text but some friends did. Could just be in the NE?
Who’s up around cross field getting videos of the tornado?!
I’m getting the alert that it’s in ‘my cell coverage area’. Haven’t seen it yet
Dear lord - why the F would someone 100km away need to be binged and bonged about a (probable) F1 tornado.
For the same reason you get a Amber alert at 4am for a missing child 500kms away. Overusage of the system.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
Exactly my point - complete misuse and a surefire way of getting more people to call 911 and complain..... LOLThis quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote
