I'd be curious if we could build a floating patch of these in the ocean and put them in front of hurricanes to rob them of the hot water they need to grow?

Anyone able to do the math? Keep in mind all the billions we spend on hurricane damage.




It would be a lot cheaper to do some cloud seeding or SRM ahead of the storm to reflect away solar radiation into space.
