Systems, apparatuses, and methods provide for technology that locates one or more masses of an ocean-based weather system, as the ocean-based weather system starts to organize and before the ocean-based weather system spawns a land-based storm, and controls a transmission of electromagnetic radiation from the space platform to the one or more masses, wherein the transmitted electromagnetic radiation tracks the one or more masses as the ocean-based weather system is starting to organize and rotate, and wherein the transmitted electromagnetic radiation prevents the ocean-based weather system from rotating and spawning the land-based storm.
