The University of Vermont has begun a project to build Vermont’s first statewide network of over 20 automated weather-monitoring towers that apparently will address lapses in real-time data amid rising extreme weather events like flooding. 

Currently Vermont is one of only 12 U.S. states without such a system. Vermont relies on limited radar and distant stations that struggle with its mountainous terrain and microclimates. The towers will cost $50,000 and will measure temperature, humidity, precipitation, wind, and soil moisture, with data publicly accessible. 

Vermont Public reports that the first tower is planned for Lyndon’s Caledonia County Fairgrounds, followed by one in the Mad River Valley next spring, with full deployment potentially taking a decade. This project is supported by grants, the National Weather Service, and local partners. The network aims to improve flood forecasting, aid farmers and emergency responders, and track long-term climate trends.

The National Weather Service is collaborating with the University of Vermont to identify the optimal sites for the new weather towers.

UVM intends to seek permits for additional towers as the program expands over the coming years, with full network completion potentially taking up to ten years.

Construction of each tower costs approximately $50,000, plus ongoing maintenance expenses for the overall system.

The university has secured grant funding for the initial two towers and is continuing to pursue additional grants and private donations to finance the rest of the network.

Part of a ‘Space Fence?’

For the rest of this news story, I’m diverging from the who-what-where and engaging in some informed speculation, with my geoengineering and weather modification cap firmly affixed. This story struck the team and I at Our Geoengineering Age to be very interesting. Considering the fact that in recent springs and summers Vermont has experienced a lot of flooding, it makes sense that our government is seeking to measure real-time data specifically on floods. Not to mention the fact that it has flooded in Vermont on July 11 for the last three years in a row. 

“‘The “Space Fence,’  as Elana Freeland calls it…” said OGA Environmental Historian Dr. Rob Williams in reaction to the story.

Elana Freeland is one of the most well-known geoengineering researchers and writers. She has written four books on the topic and her most recent is titled The Geoengineered Transhuman: The Hidden Technologies of HAARP, Chemtrails, 5G/6G, Nanotechnology, Synthetic Biology, and the Scientific Effort to Transform Humanity. 

One of Freeland’s most well known revelations through her books on geoengineering is that so much of what we call “weather monitoring” and the technology that is used to “monitor” the weather are dual use technologies that have nothing to do with weather monitoring and “providing real time data on weather for the farmers.” These public-private infrastructure projects are disguised as weather monitoring, but ultimately serve as pieces of an electromagnetic surveillance grid, weather modification technologies, and as part of a global network known as the “Space Fence.”

Freeland has described the ‘Space Fence’ as a covert, planet-scale electromagnetic control grid, an advanced evolution of the Reagan-era “Star Wars” Strategic Defense Initiative, engineered to achieve “full spectrum dominance” over Earth and its population. Her claim is that it operates through a network of satellites, ionospheric heaters like HAARP (The High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program) and widespread chemtrail spraying of conductive nanoparticles, such as coal fly ash and carbon black dust, to ionize the atmosphere. 

This transformed sky functions as a giant conductive antenna, enabling real-time global surveillance, weather manipulation, and directed energy operations. Freeland claims the system allows governments to track every individual, vehicle, and biological entity via embedded and sprayed nanosensors, far surpassing conventional radar capabilities.

Freeland also warns that the Space Fence serves as a multi-purpose weapon system capable of triggering artificial earthquakes, disrupting electronics with scalar waves, and deploying directed energy weapons. 

She further also claims it supports neurological entrainment through pulsed electromagnetic fields, paving the way for mind control and a transhumanist agenda involving AI, synthetic biology, and nanobots. 

According to her, this infrastructure that is funded covertly through public pensions and defense contractors, violates the 1967 Outer Space Treaty and represents an existential threat to human autonomy and free will.
