SEA temperatures. NOT ionosphere temperatures.

You have to consider the density of the water and the atmosphere. Heat transfers much better from water to air than air to water. The amount of heat transfer from air to water is so negligible that it’s not even considered in the calculations of energy transfer.

A brief bit of calculation...

The link claims that HAARP injects 3.6 million watts of energy into a volume of atmosphere 12 mi. x 90 mi x 2.5 mi, which = 2700 cubic miles of atmosphere.

That is 3,600,000 millions watts divided by 2700 cubic miles of atmosphere. That amounts to 1333.33 watts into each cubic mile of atmosphere. That’s just over a megawatt spread out over a cubic mile.

An aurora which has been measured showed an energy output of five hundred thousand billion Joules.

http://wattsupwiththat.com/2007/12/15/from-agu-confirming-the-cause-of-aurora-borealis/

“Estimates of the total energy of a two-hour auroral event they studied are at five hundred thousand billion (5 x 10^14) Joules. That’s approximately equivalent to the energy of a magnitude 5.5 earthquake.”

A watt is a Joule/second.

Anyway, what they’re claiming HAARP is pumping into the atmosphere to control the weather is like spitting into a forest fire to put it out. Auroras introduce fat more energy into the atmosphere than HAARP.

Not to mention the amount of insolation the earth receives every day from the sun.

“The total amount of energy received at the Earth’s surface in a 24-hour period is about 84 terrawatts (84,000,000,000,000 watts).”
http://www.vrml.k12.la.us/rpautz/documents/8th%20Grade/Insolation%20and%20the%20Seasons.pdf

84,000,000,000,000 divided by 3,600,000 is 23,330,000.

That 3.6 million allegedly introduced by HAARP into a miniscule portion of the atmosphere, is 23.33 millionths of the amount of energy received from the sun each day on earth.

Using an average of 250 thick atmosphere, the total volume of the earth’s atmosphere is 49,233,750 cubic miles. That divided by the 2,700 mentioned in the you tube link is 1/18,235 ths of the total volume of the atmosphere.

The amounts of energy needed to influence the weather are far greater than what is being claimed by the HAARP conspiracy theorists. There’s too little energy in too small a volume to make any difference. It would be dissipated too quickly to be significant, butterfly effect notwithstanding.

Weather control ain’t happening.

Analog UHF TV antennaes used to broadcast more energy than that.

You may well be right.

However, my loved one and their associates aren’t used to making things up etc.

And, there’s sufficient other aspects . . . as well as sufficient ‘smoke,’

I’m very skeptical that there’s absolutely no fire whatsoever.

Last I heard, weather is an incredibly complex thing. Takes some pretty massive computing power to model it even fractionally well.

Then, of course, there’s the contention that a butterfly flapping it’s wings in the Amazon can result in dramatic things in Moscow. . . . or some such.

LOL.

HARRP uses a focused beam not, throwing it into the entire atmosphere.
