Texas Flood Disaster Spurs Weather Modification Ban Calls

News summary

Catastrophic flash flooding struck Central Texas, particularly Kerr County, after the remnants of Tropical Storm Barry brought up to 15 inches of rain, causing the Guadalupe River to rise over 29 feet in a matter of hours. The flood resulted in more than 100 deaths, including dozens of children at Camp Mystic, and caused widespread destruction to homes, vehicles, and infrastructure. The disaster has renewed debates over disaster preparedness and revealed persistent failures in warning systems and emergency response. Public concerns have emerged regarding potential links to weather modification, though Rainmaker Technology has denied any involvement. In response, legislation to ban weather modification activities has been introduced and calls for greater federal transparency on geoengineering have intensified. The tragedy underscores the need for improved readiness in the face of increasingly severe weather events.
