I work for a wireless carrier and last year was the first time I knew for sure what a “Derecho” was. We worked countless hours to restore power to sites. Meanwhile so many people were displaced from Prince George’s and Montgomery counties that there were parking lots with tents and the Red Cross set up all over. It was mid to high 90′s all week those poor people having to hunker down in makeshift campgrounds. Power was out in some areas for 21 days. Hope to never see another.

This is the type of storm that flattened a large swath of the BWCAW and surrounding areas in 1999. if I recall correctly, it left a path of destruction in its wake all the way to New England.

Enough of the conspiracy theory bullshit. It’s called weather, it’s big and its a lot more powerful than us. Get over it.
“This alumina, barium and strontium mixture is in the aerial spraying which causes the winds and rains to push into the east.”
What complete and utter misinformed rubbish! Outside of Youtube videos and conspiracy theory websites, where’s your evidence? There isn’t any, because it does not exist! It is complete fantasy cooked up by peddlers of misinformation. If heavy metals like those really were being sprayed into the clouds like some of those websites claim, we’d all be dead, along with everything else that lives and breathes in air and water.
I can assure you, no nation in the world, not even the USA, is yet powerful enough to control the weather, and even if it could, it would not be using it to harm its own economy by damaging crops.

We have been watching the derecho and the dust winds arriving from the west toward the east. We believe the weather is digitally controlled, emanating from the change of systems brought about from seeding the westward winds with the Welsbach patented. This alumina, barium and strontium mixture is in the aerial spraying which causes the winds and rains to push into the east. While the west, California, Texas and up to Missouri is dry, the Midwest is getting soaked. The spraying of ions into the stratosphere, along with microwave resonance is causing severe climate change we are experiencing. Check out globalskywatch.com.

This weather event is the result or residue of geo-engineering.
Take a good look at Katrina in New Orleans or the Hurricane that destroyed Port au Prince, Haiti. Ask any U.S. marine. Maybe we can’t, they have died of cancer.
Drop more aluminum to cool planet. Grow more geo corn. Educate the Spanish. DERECHO.

From southwest Missouri we usually get these in mid summer usually around late afternoon through the evening hours, I always went out to the field and watched the lightning associated after dark. Usually there are reports of destroyed buildings and fallen trees where the storm was strongest, one year a derecho tore shingles off of our house and blew our barn apart.

Could these phenomenon be the result of the ongoing Geo-engineering projects? I understand that they have the ability to steer storms, and it seems odd that this is not even considered when discussing these type of events.

Was coming home from a friends house last summer and got caught in the middle of a derecho. Trees and lines down all over. Had to try 2 different ways to get thru to my home. When I got to the end of the road I live on 3 large trees were down across the road. Climbed over then and went hom. What should have been a 20 min drive turned into 1.5 hours but at least I was safe. Some people died. I live in central WV.

SO WIERD!! I had a dream last night about this kind of storm! I opened my house door and the animals were in it. The wind was blowing them so hard, but straight at them, so that their fur was blowing back like they were in a wind tunnel. I herded them into my house to save them! I though in my head what kind of a storm is THIS? And here’s my answer! Thanx!
