It makes more sense to them that there is a secret group inside the federal government that's trying to drown the east coast and dry up the west coast than weather patterns changing due to global warming.
Like Naomi Klein said: people who buy into conspiracy theories are generally on to something but they keep trading the more obvious, the better understood conspiracy staring at them right in the face (corporations creating doubt about global warming so they can continue polluting) and go with a more fantastical one (the government is controlling the weather).
