I don't think it's going to make that much of a difference.

The cloud seeding thing? We gave up in the 1970s. It didn't work.

Helene and Milton are exactly what I predicted re: hurricanes as the October surprise. FEMAs presence is in the NC mountains, but they needed an embedded reporter and Kamala and Biden needed to be there earlier and longer.
Part Two will be Hurricane Milton and Florida impacts.
Helene and Milton are Climate Change TURBO-charged tropical systems. Milton is CAT 5 and beasting
OF COURSE, Trump and MAGA are going to lie about the response in western NC. It's remote - and they tape or broadcast their work. IMO, Biden needed to have given a speech on national TV the day after the floods. NOAA had a pretty good idea there would be devastating rains in the NC mountains, but they hadn't counted on the CC turbocharging. Even Republican Governors (Bill Lee - TN) and Senators (Thom tillis) are pushing back on the Trump Lies re: FEMA response, but the campaigns are leaking oil in NC, FL... two states that Kamala could win and end the race early.

All hands need to be on deck and filming re: FEMA and post-storm Biden and Kamala and Walz. Then back to North Carolina mountains.
Kamala and Biden are going to have to prove to the American people that government is working for them and collaborative with immense private relief efforts.
I want to see Kamala in a shot during the aftermath with Reed Timmer!
When there is a disaster in the US - you show up early and often as POTUS and VPOTUS.

There's an episode on the West Wing where President Jed Bartlet and part of his staff flew out to Oklahoma post a devastating tornado. POTUS stayed a couple of days, literally helping with the cleanup. The staff dragged him back to "the nation's business while Bartlett argued that his place for one more day was there. The staff won but they were wrong. He was right IMO. Because that WAS the nation's business.
Part Two will be Hurricane Milton and Florida impacts.

‘A lot of misinformation’ | Gov. Lee, FEMA address donation rumors
Gov. Lee clarified that the rumors about donations being confiscated were completely false.
Both Democrats and Republicans in North Carolina say misinformation is complicating Hurricane Helene relief efforts
Donald Trump and others have shared false claims about the federal hurricane response. Officials say it's making recovery harder.

Didn't you hear? Majorie Taylor Greene found some loony's patent application from 2004 for a weather modification device and that totally proves it's real.

??? The Gulf was poised for explosive development. The only thing that prevented more tropical systems was a late in the season high pressure ridge over Texas and the Gulf. The Death Ridge as I call it is usually a late June to mid-August phenomenon. this year after Beryl it established itself in late July, until the beginning of September, then made an appearance last in September.
Helene was not really a surprise except for the 1000 year level rain in the NC mountains. Milton beasting is no surprise at all to hurrican watchers an d the NHC.
Unfortunately, Climate Change (elevated CO2 levels) is making 500 and 1000 year events commonplace.

"people are saying."
If Dems could control the weather, then why was, per their misinformation, FEMA not ready? Wouldn't FEMA show up far ahead of time like they were pre-cogs?
Yeah, I know reason and logic don't enter into the MTG/MAGA narrative.

I wasn't making an astute political statement. I was just amused how the two quoted posts echoed the lyric.
I'm right there with you in terms of the inevitability of all this and have been since the late 70s.

When you are a VP running for president you do, or should

Generally, one can't remember a VP doing anything!
Kamala was in NC this weekend.
Harris pledges ongoing federal support as she visits North Carolina to survey Helene's aftermath
Kamala Harris pledged ongoing federal support and praised the “heroes among us” as she visited North Carolina on Saturday in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, her second trip in four days to the disaster zone.
apnews.com
Keep in mind this VP is running for POTUS against a Maleficent Falsehood Generator.
FL, NC are in play. Then hop to PA, WI, MI, NE2, AZ, NV
Be there.

Ok but that's not what he said. He said the VP should show up early and often. Not just a VP running
Now I do encourage Trump to be on Clearwater Beach to hold a presser while the storm hits
