Historical flooding in Asheville is reviewed, comparing current devastation to the record flood of 1916. The Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA) previously proposed a dam project on the French Broad River in 1971 that might have mitigated current flooding, but it was defeated by local opposition. The segment also touches on historical government experiments with silver iodide for hurricane steering and the moisture impact of the 2022 underwater volcano eruption.
