For whatever it is worth, they used to call snow poor farmer's
fertilizer. The snow supposedly picks up some nitrogen from the air on
its way down, and when it melts the nitrogen goes into the ground,
helping to enrich the soil. So dumping snow on fields would not have
been a Bad Thing to do.

ever be able to, say, disrupt a snowstorm enough to change its course to,

The answer to this is simple.
The ability to affect weather depends on wielding a great deal of energy.
The ability to control weather depends on CONTROLLING a great deal of energy.
Today, we can easily affect the weather by detonating our nuclear
arsenal. We could control the weather if we
The laws of physics tell you that you can't afford the necessary energy to
significantly change the path of a storm, even if you were to invent a
convenient mechanism for implementing it.

That's what they did when I lived in NY City. Very effective.
