I was 7 during Irma and I remember sitting in the hallway of my grandparents- house, watching everything outside explode. If the wind had been just a little bit stronger, my entire family and I would have been killed. The house next to us had a giant mango tree and it fell just millimeters away from the wall. Luckily no one was inside of the next door house; it was COMPLETELY destroyed. We were right in the eye of the hurricane so it wasn-t as bad as it could-ve been but it was definitely something I will not forget. Also, my grandma just casually opened the front door and said -Look at the transformers exploding! - With a smile on her face.

Check the relevance of those numbers. Not sure how releasing enough energy (from 238 Tsar Bombas) would, despite being able to destroy all of humanity, be unable to affect a hurricane. Does a hurricane destroy all of humanity many times over? I know that water has 4x the specific heat of air, so it might incinerate the atmosphere, while only something like 0. 25-1. 00% of a hurricane's energy is released as wind, but I'm not sure your raw numbers are even making sense. Then, there is the point that displacing the convection currents of a cyclone does not require dissipating its entire energy content. So, a deeper analysis is needed.

There's a problem with your analysis at 2: 53. What fallout, exactly? Fallout isn't an inevitable side effect of nuclear explosions. Fallout is the dirt and other materials that get irradiated and thrown into the atmosphere, to later come down elsewhere. In this case, you're not even detonating in the water; you're detonating in the hurricane itself, above the water. Indeed, in the eye, where there isn't even a bunch of water in the air. There would be very little fallout from a detonation of this nature.

It was sort of expected that a hurricane cares uncomparably more energy than a nuclear bomb and this idea is a complete disaster, but I didn't know there is any possibility of non-military use of a nuclear weapon at all. I know about the Orion project but was sure it's purely theoretical by now.

So I was all right along it is space weather because only the momentum of the earth could create that much energy. We might think about flying earth if we dont want huricanes anymore or have a energy shield that is stronger then the em field we currently have.

this is the most retarded question ever, if you drop a nuclear bomb into a hurrican then you make the destruction FAR worse, dang i hate how scientists think they are asking smart questions but it turns out to be extremely dang retarded

Real Life Lore, and everyone else please listen to those being sent by the God of Israel that preaches the seal of God, or the New Covenant Passover to be saved from the last disasters even a nuclear war also!

one monkey says to the other monkey how do we stop a hurricane I know let's shoot it the other monkeys then like that didn't work now what let's nuke it oh s--- that didn't work now what well f--- if I know

My Toyota Corolla stood up to my autistic toddler who has at least 700 trillion joules of energy, so we'd probably only need one.

Considering the reporting that has recently come out in 2022. I wonder if anyone in the White House watched this video in 2017.

People don't realize that a hurricane has the power of thousands of Mt yield thermonuclear weapons continuously going off.

how actually someone thought of droping nuclear weapon (btw. the most destructive and dangerious weapon ever) to hurricane

Katrina and Harvey are tied for the highest cost of damage actually $125 billion but had similarities towards each other

Why would anyone think this was a good idea? I-m not even that smart and I could have told you this would end badly.

I would think a big enough bomb out over the ocean could break up the rotation, but the fallout is still a problem

well. i think there might be scenario with series of detanations that might break the flow. .did anyone model it?
