Why can't we blow hurricanes away? (DETAILS )

Asked by MrGrimm888 (19034points) October 26th, 2016

They say the flap of a butterflies wings can change the direction of a tornado.

Hurricanes are clearly much larger, but also a vortex storm, affected by surrounding conditions.

What if we made giant fans, and mounted them on massive aircraft carrier like ships. As the hurricane approaches land, we blow it back out to sea.

The price would be vast, but it would have to be cheaper than all the damage the storms cause.

Maybe several such ships could even direct the storms with some precision. Blow the storms up to the Arctic.
