I did Google it, actually many times in the past, what I did do was ask Atsers Opinion of it
Frankly I about certain the technology exisits I just decided to pose this post as a question and play a bit dumb to see what kind of response I would
get.
Because what I am not sure of... is who is blowing them up in stregnth and I wanted the opinion of the handful in here that have some knowledge on the
subject.
It really isn't all that hard to do these things, a few degrees heat over a few thousand sq miles to up the rate of moisture heading into a storm is
not an extremely impossible task, further, you wouldn't have to maintain it...nature maintains it naturally, it's not going to diminish until it
hits land
What we or they obviously can't do yet is create a hurricane where there wouldn't be one, i.e. off the coast of seattle
But steer a storm a few hundred miles to the east of west over a 3,000 mile path and or accelerate it's growth by 20-30 mph in winds avg, or make it
20-30% larger on the course of it's path really should not be such a difficult thing
Taking a storm that has 130 mph winds and pushing it over 150, would require, slightly warming the waters in it's path over a long distance
What I'd be far more dubious of and would agree with you on is... stoping a hurricane, removing a the stregnth of a hurricane, that would require
alot more energy
