Original Note:
This is a baseless claim. The High-frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) from the University of Alaska Fairbanks cannot create or modify weather, including tornadoes. It merely studies the ionosphere and its effects on communications, not weather systems. https://www.reuters.com/fact-check/haarp-did-not-modify-weather-create-hurricane-helene-or-milton-2024-10-14/
