When the Guadalupe Roared—and the Rumors of “Weather Editing” That Followed
On July 4, 2025, Central Texas residents expecting typical Independence Day river relays were met instead with a scene of raw power and devastation. A series of slow-moving storm cells dumped between 5 and 10 inches of rain over the upper Guadalupe watershed in under six hours.

As floodwaters receded and communities rallied to rebuild, a persistent current of speculation emerged: Was this disaster “natural,” or the product of clandestine weather-editing programs?
