Not only a five headed shark, but one has the image of a nuclear explosion in its mouth. Good lord.

It has been estimated the most powerful nuclear weapon ever detonated, the 50MT Czar Bomba the USSR detonated, will retard the formation of an Atlantic hurricane by a few hours, and will noticeably weaken an already formed major Atlantic Hurricane for less than 2 hours.

Another factoid:
All the nuclear weapons of the approximately 2000 nuclear weapons ever detonated by men since 1945 yields a combined total of about 600 Megatons That's equal to the total energy output of a single moderate sized hurricane over 10 hours.
The world's nuclear arsenals are clearly not in any league level suitable for holding back hurricanes.
So the clear implication is we should build many, many more nuclear weapons.
What if we reverse the polarity of the neutron flow? Would that help?

Obviously we need to up our game and use dilithium crystals.

We'd need a flux capacitor to be honest.
