According to what I've read, HAARP would create "lenses" in the
ionosphere, which would concentrate solar flux to a small extent, but
enough to influence small weather patterns, and given that the weather
is a chaotic system a small tweak here and there is all that is needed
to have at least a minimally noticable level of control over the entire
weather system. This has been the subject of papers by people involved
in the HAARP project, from what I've read in the science press.
