Superstorm is a three-part British docudrama miniseries that follows a team of scientists attempting to weaken hurricanes through cloud seeding technology. Directed by Julian Simpson, the series blends fictional narrative with scientific speculation, exploring both the ambition and ethical complexities of weather manipulation. Each episode runs 59 minutes and aired on BBC One from April to May 2007, paired with companion documentaries on BBC Two examining real-world extreme weather monitoring and forecasting.
