Chance for rain tonight!

According to a knowledgeable source in Alaska, the engineers will have to take HAARP down from 10:00 pm (Central) until 2:00am, meaning there is an opportunity to search for evidence of the heat ray.  The weather forecast suddenly shows a  slight (20%) chance of storms (perhaps strong) during those hours as the heat ray is not functioning.  We can only hope for rain, but it begs the question: Is the meteorological service 'in' on the operations of HAARP, providing cover for them?  It does seem a bit convenient.
