Is NEXRAD a military program?

No. As mentioned in the previous question NEXRAD was partly funded and continues to be maintained, in part, by the Department of Defense. However, the NEXRAD network is operated and maintained by the “Radar Operations Center” (ROC, see previous link) which includes employees from each of the previously mentioned agencies as well as external contractors. It is unreasonable to believe that the military would implement a secret, covert operation using NEXRAD sites that are jointly maintained by civilian agencies and many of which are located at relatively unsecure locations with no military protection whatsoever. • Can NEXRAD control the weather? No. NEXRAD sites are simply advanced radar that transmits a radio frequency wave into the atmosphere and waits to “hear” a radio frequency echo. There is no reason to believe, nor is there evidence to suggest, that NEXRAD sites can control the weather. • Are NEXRAD sites “electrifying” the atmosphere? No. Certainly no more than your local radio s
