I don't think their control is that great. If they steer a body of humid air around, for another reason, there can be an impact where that would have gone instead, if they were trying to shoot for drying, then some place might catch a flood.

How often does it rain in the Nevada desert? I come from australia, and the pattern there tends to be 10 or so years and then a real doozy hits the desert. But that's partly to do with the fact that there is a big long mountain range north to south that causes rain to usually dump east of it, and fill the river catchments. But if something makes the wind blow a bit harder, the condensation happens over the other side of the mountains, and you get a flood.

The difference is firstly, it's on the west side where the sea is, and solar energy tends to push high pressure areas westerly. The nearest big mountains there are the rockies, and again, the usual rain is to the east, but the big difference is that there's that big wide flat area, for the most part, in the middle, and that's also where the lakes form from the water, mostly coming from the east side of the mountains.

There just isn't a "killing the plebs" purpose in making nevada rain, quite the opposite. But I could believe it is an indirect effect of trying to set california on fire again.
