| FIGURE 1 Figure 1 is a block diagram of factors that inhibit development of a hurricane. |
 |
| FIGURE 2 Figure 2 is another block diagram of factors that inhibit development for a hurricane.

 |
| FIGURE 5 Figure 5 is an illustrative view of factors that determine wind speed of a hurricane for a given minimum sea-level pressure. |
 |
| FIGURE 6 Figure 6 is a block diagram of previous attempts to inhibit development of a hurricane. |
 |
| FIGURE 7 Figure 7 is an illustrative view showing artificial stimulation of convection outside the eyewall through seeding. |
 |
| FIGURE 8 Figure 8 is an illustrative view of the tracking of hurricane's Fabian and Isabel. |
 |
| FIGURE 9 Figure 9 is an illustrative view of the tracking of storm's Charley and Earl of 2004. |
 |
| FIGURE 10 Figure 10 is an illustrative view of the tracking of storm's Karl and Lisa of 2004. |
 |
| FIGURE 11 Figure 11 is an illustrative view of the present invention's preferred method of altering the direction and intensity of a storm. |
 |
| FIGURE 12 Figure 12 is an illustrative view of the present invention's alternative method of varying the direction and hindering the intensity of a storm. |
 |
| FIGURE 13 Figure 13 is an illustrative view of the present invention's alternative method of varying the direction and hindering the intensity of a storm. |
 |
| FIGURE 14 Figure 14 is a block diagram of methods to reduce the surface temperature of waters in the path of a tropical cyclone such as the tropical storm or hurricane. |
 |
| FIGURE 15 Figure 15 is an illustrative view of the effects on a storm's intensity and direction due to sea surface temperatures. |
