Weather machine

Predating Doc Greene's arrival on Griffin Rock, the weather machine is kept in the room with the other "Best Left Forgotten" stuff like the perpetual motion lamp and the invisible telephone. This powerful device can control the very elements, creating unseasonal weather patterns. It utilizes a sub-ethereal particle beam to create this effect.

"Changes"
An early version of the weather machine was on board the S.S. Isolde in 1966, when the ship was lost at sea.

"Christmas in July"
During a particularly extreme heatwave, Cody Burns had the idea to ask Doc Greene for help. Greene happened to have a later version of the weather machine stored away, and at Cody and Frankie's urging, brought it out so they could use it to create snow. The machine was taken to the town square, though Cody got the Doc to test it in an alleyway before they got there, and used to create a snow flurry in a fenced off area.

Unfortunately a large snowball thrown by Boulder caused a tree branch to fall on the weather machine, breaking its lever and sending it into overdrive. Soon there was snow and wintery conditions all over Griffin Rock. Unable to stop the machine, Doc Greene enlisted the help of Boulder and Graham Burns in getting the machine back to his laboratory where he affected repairs and was able to shut it down safely.

"Changes"
Doctor Morocco recovered the weather machine from the Isolde during his salvage efforts and made modifications to increase its power and mounted it on a buoy. He later used it to create a number of storms over Griffin Rock, forcing the population to evacuate so he was free to visit the fire house. Its operation came to an abrupt end when Heatwave rammed it, smashing it to pieces.
