Hurricane control
What would happen if you drop a 50 megaton hydrogen bomb down the eye wall
of a hurricane and have it explode at sea level? |

My guess is that it would have a similar effect to a 50.2359 megaton hydrogen bomb exploded from a little higher. Of course a lot would depend on the accuracy of the drop, the size of the storm and the air pressure in and diameter of the eye. One thing you could count on is that a considerable amount of water would be vapourised and about more than three or four fish will be boiled alive (and one or two dead.) Is there any chance that this particular hurricane would be going ashore at a certain ranch in Texas? Because if it is, I think we should risk an experiment. |

I would think that the blast wave radiating out from ground zero and then sucking back (like you see in films) would have a considerable effect on the rotation of the storm. Cat 1 thru 4. |
