A one-hundred-year flood is a flood event that has a 1% probability of occurring in any given year. The 100-year flood is also referred to as the 1% flood, since its annual exceedance probability is 1%,[1] or as having a return period of 100-years. The 100-year flood is generally expressed as a flowrate. Based on the expected 100-year flood flow rate in a given creek, river or surface water system, the flood water level can be mapped as an area of inundation. The resulting floodplain map is referred to as the 100-year floodplain, which may figure very importantly in building permits, environmental regulations, and flood insurance.

He did say it was the first flood like that in his area in 100 years. Every floodplain has its own 100 year flood. It's not a global statistic.
HAARP conspiracies are pure bullshit.

Stanford University professor Umran Inan told Popular Science that weather-control conspiracy theories were ?completely uninformed,? explaining that ?there?s absolutely nothing we can do to disturb the Earth?s [weather] systems. Even though the power HAARP radiates is very large, it?s minuscule compared with the power of a lightning flash?and there are 50 to 100 lightning flashes every second. HAARP?s intensity is very small.?[3]
