Can we stop hurricanes?

 Can we stop them with nukes, or perhaps other ways?  10 minute video at Backreaction.

TL,DW: No, not really, at least not yet.  The trick may be to better forecast which thunderstorms are likely to turn into hurricanes, then disrupt those.  But really, it's time to stop snickering at people who ask "well, what can we do?"

I prefer to look on the upside.  Without hurricanes, tacky housing developments would take over all the good fishing spots and beautiful beaches.  Harsh medicine, but probably the best that we can hope for.
