Weather theory is important to study if we are ever to control our weather or stop the vicious storms like Hurricane Katrina and Rita. As far-fetched as that seems, it is not impossible really. However it may take one heck of a lot of power to do so. But we do not have to compete with the Hurricane pound for pound in fact we can simply modify one of its components. Like fighting a wildfire; if you take away the heat, fuel or oxygen it dies. Each Hurricane is a simple system and has basic components it needs to grow from a tropical depression to a tropical storm and then into a full-fledged Hurricane. Knowing this we can stop, steer or control Hurricanes. How so you ask?

Different percentages of gas in the atmosphere will act differently under different temperatures. Different temperatures at different altitudes affect the winds aloft in different ways. Different surface temperatures on the ocean will affect the surface winds. Different wave actions will affect the surface winds. Any single change will interact differently and you’ll change weather patterns. A volcanic vent on the floor of the Pacific Ocean will impact the surface temperature of the water and therefore the weather patterns. This could lead to more severe weather, which will appear to us to be unpredictable, but actually it will be more predictable, we may not like the prediction but we can know the outcome.

Since Hurricanes form using specific criteria, change or eliminate one of them and you have either weakened it, stopped it or caused it to change direction, formation or intensity. Think on this, as there has to be a way.

We all see the patterns, cycles and flows of our current home planet and indeed we understand much about how they work. But we need to know more and understand the current climate change cycle and how this will affect mankind. We study wind patterns, jet streams, Hurricanes, rivers, volcanic ash clouds, smoke from wildfires and thunderstorms; it all seems so difficult to predict in any absolute sense.

Ocean currents with any crevasse of the ocean may be very simple to study as the earth spins in the water flows it is relatively constant in certain places. Near the surface of the ocean where the water is less dense and more obvious and numerous factors play a part in the direction and flow it will be more difficult to predict, as more factors exist. However once all those factors are known it will not be as difficult as it once appeared.

Now let’s take the atmosphere which can change rapidly and has to take into consideration the ocean flow, temperature, height of the waves along with the heat of the land mass which could include; Urban heat, clouds, barometric pressure, precipitation, static electricity, wind, land formations, man-made pollution, man-made structures and many other non suspecting conditions and in many variations. This however should not scare away the scientists, the dreamer or the funds of those with the imagination to take this species to the next step.

We have come a long way in the study of our planet; its cycles and flows, we are learning more every day. Soon we will be able to use this data to stop droughts, put out fires or steer the extreme weather storms, which threaten our civilization. Think on it.
