Pretty self explanatory.

I wanted to post more options, but I ran out of room because XF is lame ( :( ) and only allows ten poll options so I chose what I feel are the ten most probable answers.

I understand this topic maybe controversial but I'm hoping cooler heads will prevail.

It's the only way to be sure.

Wait, scratch that--first we need extensive study on whether climate events work off of WWII logic or comic book logic. Because in the former case then nuking would work as a means of ending them, but if the latter? Then we'd just be creating superpowered hurricanes, and not nobody wants to see Category 5 'Julia' go on a roaring rampage of revenge against the shadowy, military-industrial complex-working people who created it.

Nuclear Hurricane would be a totally awesome 80's metal band name, not so great for actual hurricanes though.

Bad enough that Turkey Point nuclear power pant is at the tip of Florida south of Miami... yeah guys, lets build a nuke plant at sea level right where hurricanes like to hit, what could go wrong?

I think you left out "Yes, because having lots of radioactive fallout mixed in with your gale-force winds and lashing rain would be totally an awesome idea!"

Your sarcasm isn't helpful. This is a cereal issue. :cry:
