Why not manually intervene to control the typhoon?

The influence of mangosteen has faded, but the discussion about typhoon continues. A friend suggested that it is now possible to make artificial rainfall. Why can't we interfere with typhoons and destroy mangosteen? In fact, in our human history, there are really many ideas and attempts to control typhoons.

In the 1940s, some people put forward a plan to use warships to eliminate typhoons, which may be "in the palm of your hand". However, compared with the energy of nature, "volley" is simply nine Niu Yi hairs.

After the first hydrogen bomb exploded successfully, some people fantasized that throwing it into the eye of the typhoon would probably blow it up. But the calculation shows that this is also impossible. A moderate intensity typhoon, the energy released by water vapor condensation in just one second is equivalent to six atomic bombs. Later, the United States successively launched the first artificial experiment "Cirrus Plan" and "Hurricane Plan" which lasted for 2 1 year, hoping to reduce the wind speed of typhoons by sowing catalysts, but both ended in failure.

After the "Hurricane Plan", no country has such a huge artificial intervention plan for typhoons.

Artificial intervention in weather can only be a small range of weather, not particularly bad weather. For example, a small cloud can be weakened by cannons and catalysts before it reaches a densely populated area, but it is almost impossible for a large-scale system like a typhoon.

The meteorological department "shot into the air" to eliminate hail and rainfall. Typhoon has brought a lot of fresh water resources, but it is not a disaster as we see it, and it also has many good places.

The abundant precipitation brought by typhoon to the passing area is conducive to alleviating drought, wetting the climate and improving the environment. Typhoon precipitation is the main source of summer precipitation in Jiangnan and South China. It was the typhoon that lifted the drought in the Pearl River Delta, the two lakes basin and the Northeast Plain, and ensured a bumper agricultural harvest. It is also because of the heavy precipitation brought by the typhoon that many dry reservoirs are recharged.

Typhoons can be predicted in advance.

It is impossible to control typhoons at the current scientific level, but as long as typhoons are generated, we can still catch them in advance, make predictions and avoid disasters.

At present, the time limit for issuing typhoon forecast in our country is five days, that is, you can see the future direction of the typhoon from the website of our Central Meteorological Observatory five days in advance, but with the extension of the forecast time limit, the accuracy of seeing it five days in advance is definitely not higher than that of seeing it two days in advance, so everyone should constantly update their information when paying attention to the typhoon.
