Looks like the USDA was performing experimental electrostatic cloud seeding over Texas at about the time Hurricane Harvey was making landfall. Video below:

I especially like this part:

2. Office of Innovation
a. Issuance of weather modification permit to the South Texas Weather Modification Association
b. Status of rainfall-enhancement operations statewide
c. Exemption to the USDA-TAES for experimental cloud seeding in Texas during the summer of 2017
d. New ASCE Standard Practice Document for precipitation enhancement
