One could argue that weather control is an easier problem than AGI (e.g. powerful enough equipment could "unwind" storms and/or redirect weather masses).

Such equipment, however, would have to have access to more power than our civilization currently generates. So while it may be more of an engineering problem than a theoretical one, I believe that AGI is more accessible.
