Militia fueled by bizarre conspiracy theory brings down weather radars [View all]

By Sarah K. Burris
Published July 9, 2025 5:34 PM ET

A militia known as the "Veterans on Patrol" aims to dismantle weather radars, and KWTV News 9 has discovered that it's part of a larger conspiracy theory surrounding weather manipulation.

Amid false conspiracies about the floods in Texas being part of a kind of cloud seeding attack, organization founder Michael Lewis Arthur Meyer confirmed to News 9 that they were "absolutely" working to target Oklahoma radars.

The comments come "days after an individual vandalized News 9’s weather radar," the report said.
