DRY ICE by Bill Evans & M. Jameson ***

Some parts of this weather control story are very technical and boring. Then there's a story about some woman in the country killed by a storm with her animals while we are left wondering WTF and never get a reason for that when it takes place. I guess I'm supposed to connect dots at the end. Not sure.

A maniac Simpson, controls a weather facility in Antarctica and he manipulates everything in the software so IF he happens to be replaced all hell will break loose and there's no way to stop it. The hackers hired on at the same location can't stop it. The new boss, Tess can't stop it. The whole time I wonder why a plug or energy line can't be pulled/shut off and take the damn thing offline and it's over. I still don't understand why that wasn't reasonable. Meanwhile  tornados, earthquakes, floods, ice melts and all sorts of weather havoc are killing families of people he doesn't like along with a million others.

The president gets involved and the most reasonable end would be take out the facility (some reason they can't). Lots of reasons why things "can't" be done meanwhile instead of killing a few people at the facility millions are dying everywhere else. Has some sort of happy ending. Wonder how the other countries are dealing with that. Like Israel which was sort of bumped off the map.

The only thing scary about this is that it's probably likely someone DOES and IS controlling aspects of our weather. Instead of global warming it's more likely to be global tampering. Many other countries are in this race as well as the US. Otherwise I didn't find it very good story telling in the beginning nor the end. The middle was so-so.
