It has already dissipated and is no longer a tropical storm.

She knew the collateral damage it would cause!
Dolly died to stop Hurricane Dolly ππ
Be on the lookout for Hurricane Jolene.
Atheism wins again.
Does it? I'm not seeing it.
It's now just a wave with needed rain that's going to shower the Caribbean.
Dolly is bringing the good rain, like the Saint she is.
it's not her time yet. she'll come back someday.
You don't need a hurricane to believe in his great noodlly appendage. π
Ramen to that!
Trump would probably try to nuke it if he thought his place was under threat.
I think he would simply redirect the storm with a magic marker
Because he had to be talked out of that before right?
theoretically, could you nuke a hurricane and destroy it?
Theoretically it could strengthen it and make it radioactive. Please don't. Florida actually has a lot of value when you can look past the hate and politics of too many residents.
We could do with a lot more "return to nature" in florida
Nuclear alligators would also solve the horrible person problem.
πΆ Interior nuclear alligator, I drive a Chevrolet movie theater πΆ
Not even a little bit. The amount of energy in even our most powerful thermonuclear device is piddling compared to that contained within a hurricane. All you'd do is stir up a bunch of fallout and distribute it all over the place.
Spreading nuclear fallout all over Florida? Don't tempt me
It doesn't have to match the power. It just has to F up the storms rotation enough that it disrupts itself. I don't know if it could be enough, but it certainly doesn't need to equal the power of the storm.
The shockwave might mess with the rotation. Or it would still be to little to make a difference. I'm no expert.
Guy would probably just get richer via insurance fraud
Drop in the bucket compared to his cryptocoin and stock trades
Meanwhile, in the Pacific... Only 6 spinning wind thingies...
Brought to you by windy.com... Windy.yeah!
Hurricane? Trivago
And 13 leaves, apparently. Odd data point to track but somebody has to do it I guess.
As an atheist that's way too much coincidence.
She has become more powerful than in our wildest imaginations!
Nah. But, it would be a happy coincidence.
Yeah I don't think that tropical storm is actually Dolly Parton's spirit either. Good looking out.
You donβt already believe in our savior, Dolly?!
I really miss her. Not like, in a direct way, it just felt good sharing planet with her. It's not that we hung out or anything, but just being on the same Earth as her was sharing something with her and be blessed by her presence.
There are a few others and... They're very old. And I'm afraid.
~~Perry sure hurricanes get a new name and don't keep the tropical storm name.~~
Turns out I'm wrong.
Perry is wrong
the storm, once named, keeps the name no matter its intensity
Glad you weren't 100% confident because you are definitely wrong
