Weather control and mitigation

Technology exists for altering hurricane strength. The tech has been touted all my life for Cloud Seeding - which precipitates out moisture, lessening the water damage (if not wind). Apparently there exist more options, found by patent. After all, Einstein was a patent clerk, in 1910s Suisse; government employees in America ought to be twice as wise and thrice as diligent. Especially those versed in American corporate law.

Or mayyybe the US suffers a known "patent troll" problem permitted by... overbroad, vague, and frivolous patents.

As to the usual "global warming" culprit: greenery in the Antar'tic outskirts is happening, and perhaps those Sahara monsoons. Those shouldn't concern us. But the cost may be more-severe warming at the Gulf of Mexico as the same time as the eastern Atlantic. As more people move to affected coasts, like the Florida coasts, they should prepare accordingly. DeSantis as governor has been preparing accordingly, at least for Helene last week.

As to Milton: its track looks like the 1848 track. That is not a common track - note the year - but it has happened, and when it happens it is Bad. Please stay safe out there. And stay sane.
