The amount of cope happening in that thread to convince themselves that cloud seeding caused the flood is off the charts...

@Grok could cloud seeding have caused the floods?

No, cloud seeding contributes 10-15% extra rain maximum

But @Grok couldn't that have been enough to push it over the threshold

No, this was 40 inches of rain brought by a massive tropical storm

But @Grok if it didn't do anything why did they stop cloud seeding before the storm if it doesn't contribute significantly

(At this point Grok gives up and a human replies) You don't need more water when you already have lots of water

Mfs will believe localised weather meddling can cause a flood but can't believe trillions of tons of CO2 can exacerbate natural disasters...

I can't believe that Grok is fighting the good fight in this case but by the looks of it they will only agree with it if it matches their existing belief system...

They're so close to getting it, but so far.
