Ball lightning is always good, if you can figure it out.
more and more, my research is pointing towards a tesla-inspired lightning ray as the best approach to this device. The obvioius problems are that A) it's probably the least efficient way to blast apart a target (Laser beats bolt of charged air in almost any criterion you want to rate a weapon*) and B) It's very limited in its destructive capibilities...I'll be annihilating cars and buildings instead of cities and states...then again, it's also probably easier to make than a "weather creating machine" per say.
I also have some embryonic ideas of manufacturing huge, highly concentrated, ground-parallel cyclones, like giant whirling cones of air, which could punch holes through buildings.
