If you are looking for a place to donate money, this is a great one. Just a local insurance agent, she is leader and spearheading this up with 2 other local businesses. They taking donations of supplies and monetary donations. I can post her Venmo if you want to donate directly to her or you can get it to me and I will get it to her.
They have made 4 trips so far and are going again tomorrow, they are only donating to churches and directly to individuals. They have several connections with groups, the focus has been on the smaller more rural area.
They are avoiding anything government related.
so far they have given away 5 generators and 4 more they are taking. 25 5 gallon gas cans, 4 pallets of water, tons of food, diapers, other items.

Look into Samaritans Purse and Baptist Mission, they appear to be great organizations and get the goods wherever they are needed.
Both organizations are held in high regard with some of the folks down here.

I don't know about the cloud seeding theory. Do we have the ability to do it? Yes to a degree. Did we actually do it? Highly improbable. Everything was there for this storm to be a monster. Most on the Gulf Coast were side eyeing it before it was even a numbered low-pressure system SE of the Yucatan. The gulf is absolutely boiling with the hottest temps on record in a century. Hot water temps make hurricanes blow up. Combined with a lack of shear winds to slow development it had everything it needed to grow large quick. It quickly exploded to be a monster. The only real question was where, and that really wasn't a question as the tracks were consistent and unified well before development. It hit right where everyone thought it would. Here is a text I sent a buddy when it was still down in the Yucatan gap.
And it did just that. Now most hurricanes hit land and arc back toward the Atlantic. Usually because a low pressure line will steer it away like the image below that Hurricane Michael did. The mountains also act as a barrier to steer storms.
Michael
Helene met a low-pressure cold front line right above the Appalachians. Unfortunately, there was also a line coming down from the NE off the Atlantic. This created a pocket like a catcher's mitt. The storm went north with nowhere to go until it hit the mountains. When the hot moisture-filled air hit the mountains and began to mix with the cold air it caused instant condensation. Helene expended all of her stored energy right there at that final blue-green dot.
So, do we have the ability to alter the intensity of weather, yeah. Do we have the ability to do it that well and put all the other pieces in place like converging low-pressure fronts, water temps, and shear winds to steer and hold it? Not even close. Is anyone down here shocked that FEMA is a shitshow, also, not even close.

The fact a percentage of the population believe the government could or would do this to a region is telling. Is it the Rubicon for conspiracy theory? Maybe. But it certainly shows that most of us know our government does not have citizens’ best interest in mind.
I'm all about not trusting the government. How about we put to rest one of the conspiracy theories I have heard?
Theory; they did this so all those die hard red voters in Western NC can't vote for Trump.
Truth; if this affects voting, why did it hit Ashville the hardest where it is more blue voters?
Okay. I feel better. I'm all about distrust, but we need to be honest and fair about it. This had nothing to do with preventing voting.

No, you're absolutely correct.I have seen on TikTok everything from "that serves those Republicans better, now they're begging for socialism," and "Ashville is a sundown town where they hang blacks" to "its a conspiracy to suppress voters". What most people don't realize is it's not just Asheville. Many of those small little towns there exist a very fluid mix of both local born republicans and transplant democrats who brought money from places like California, Colorado etc to open shops, Air BnBs, or take advantage of the tourist industry. It's just a symptom of the heavily divided political nature of our country today.
Or extremely wealthy people with second homes there for the summer and winter homes further south. I've heard for decades about them.
Cherokees. Latino. Mountain folks. Lifelong residents. Retirees. There really is a mix. Very little industry. I'll tell you there is political mix even in my family down there. Lol
If you wonder how the .gov cares about us this tweet from yesterday said it all
