Default Could we use endothermic(heat absorbing) reactions to reduce hurricane strength?

Captain Picard...and the point of your post was...???? Oh wait "I am a
self-fulfilling paranoid ****nut starving for attention". I think I remember
a movie like this not too long ago. The guy kills himself at the end. Hope
the grass is greener on the other side.

Uncle Al, excellent math. It's sad that at least 5 times every hurricane
season someone needs to rehash simple physics and volumetric calculations to
overcome the poorly thought out world-saving inventions of senseless fools.
Granted there are dozens of inventions every day in the world, but 99% end
up on the home shopping network and only about 1% are generated by true
scientific genius. Bob, if these were even remotely feasible solutions, they
would have been done long ago. Take the time to think through the math,
practicality, scalability and ecological results, and if the solution STILL
holds water (no pun intended)-- you might actually have a winner.

Still, there does exist an easy, cheap & elegant solution to curb and
dissipate the energy of high energy Hurricanes !
(... but not for the giving, due to all those Mining Criminals and their
Australian Political Criminal Backers in ambush or roaming all over the
place ! )

... and a very simple application of the True Geology indeed.

Very sorry not being able to help at the present time, but hoping
gratitude and recognition for service rendered to such Criminals '
Countries & the people therein , is being both stupid & very naïve, as I
have experimented first hand !

With best regards

Hurricanes grow stronger over warm waters and correspondingly lose
strength over cool waters. Hurricanes typically need an ocean
temperature of about 80º F, 26º C, to form. This page shows the
cooler waters following Hurricane Bonnie caused Hurricane Danielle
following in Bonnie's wake to lose strength and dissipate:

According to the graphic on this page, the temperature only had to be
reduced to about 75º F for this to occur.

So could we cover the expected hurricane path with chemicals that
produce a temperature reduction on mixing with water to reduce the
ocean temperature?

Cylinder of water 70 miles in radius and 25 feet deep. Cool from 90 F
to 70 F,

(pi)(112.65 km x 10^5)^2(7.62 meters x10^2)(11.11 C) -- 3.38x10^18
calories
3.38x10^18 calories = 1.41x10^19 joules = 3,378 megatonnes equivalent

Ya gonna absorb that energy with dissolving ammonium nitrate, git?
Cylinder of vegetable oil 70 miles in radius and 1 cm thick,

(pi)(112.65 km x 10^5)^2(1) = 4x10^14 cm^3 = 10^11 gallons

Gonna pour oil on troubled waters, git?
