Kamala Harris has said she’s seen worse, referring to the Sharknado movie franchise.

No stars in space?
No atmosphere around earth?
Close enough to scoop up some clouds?
And what’s that Pratt & Whitney PW4000 doing on the ISS?

It isn’t a big hurricane at this point. It is, however, extremely powerful.

I think that is the SpaceX Dragon capsule..............

It’s daytime. You think you can see stars during the day?

The way they supercharge these storms is through electromagnetic signals which raises the energy in the dispersed nanoparticles.

There is no “daytime” in space. It’s just the cold, dark void.

It’s not going to work because hurricanes pick up their moisture from the surrounding warm waters of the ocean they are above.

I can’t believe that people actually thought cloud seeding could affect hurricanes. And apparently some still do.

Guess what? If the rain starts precipitating out, it will only increase the amount of moisture sucked up by the hurricane to replace it.

The amount of energy that drives a hurricane is massive. Even dropping a nuke in the eye would only disrupt it a little after which it would reform, and then very effectively spread the radiation all over it’s storm track.

Most people have no idea of the vast amounts of energy involved with hurricane formation and maintenance.

The only thing that will stop it, is cutting off its source of fuel, which is +80 F water. So either approaching land or moving into the cooler ocean waters is what it takes to weaken a hurricane.

President trump wanted to nuke hurricanes. I think someone told him that’s not a good idea.

“And what’s that Pratt & Whitney PW4000 doing on the ISS?”

Hilarious! Could that possibly actually be a plane?

Yeah, it’s not.

The amount of energy put out by a nuke is a fraction of the total energy output of a hurricane.

We studied it some in my met classes and people have no idea of the energy involved in a hurricane’s life, or even the moment by moment life of the storm.

Water holds a LOT of latent heat and energy.

I also don’t buy the cloud seeding to steer the hurricanes because that is NOT what steers them. What steers them is the upper level lows and highs and jet streams. And nobody can cause high or low pressure cells.
