Cold currents don't carry Hurricanes. You need warm tropical climates and warm currents
Yakieg
In the Pacific they are called typhoons, not hurricanes. Region-specific term, like champagne or bourbon, or kobi beef.
TR1SH
Only the Avatar, master of all four elements, could stop them.

Still waiting for the big one to put us under water

Post that's about California burning has 420 upvotes... heheheheh

Um, as someone who lives here, flooding and hurricane destruction is not wanted.

I moved from Seattle to South Carolina. So I was fucked either way

Be careful what you wish for...

Never thought I'd see the day where people are asking for life threatening weather to stop another form of life threatening weather.
Mondasin
As long as its not fire tornado's any storm should be good out here
GeminiMax
Ummmm fire storm before the rain?
laxstateofmind
Ya the winds would hit first and make things terrible
HipsterFett
That'd be one horrible nightmare. Just the water, please, we're already well-stocked on wind.
Steelhart
No, that'd be how you set fire to the rain.
usersubbordercontrol
Drop a tsar bomb into the center of a hurricane you say? Wait would that work?!
enybi
Do you want Fire Hurricanes? Because this is how you get Fire Hurricanes!
ExitPursuedBySeveralBears
I just want some coastal air back.. it's so close and the wind's going the wrong way
xXOdessaXx
I'd kill to have just a little air blowing. 90s with 1mph wind does not set well with my special snowflake aversion to weather.
It was 80 here and still dying
H20good4me
But the rockies will blockies. Rock block... rain block?
DecepticonMoonsinger
No I don't want to evacuate
yarngeek
Shut your whore mouth. We have enough problems with landslides and dam failures. Let it burn, a lot is dead anyway from the beetles.
boywiththehappypenis
Fucking beetles.
imherefortheplot
Last time I was in Colorado... Beetle kill, Beetle kill everywhere
Druidichawk19
I'm just waiting for the Rockies to go up like a line of gun powder
TaviRus
The forest service has been allowing people to harvest beetle kill for a few years now. But yeah, we're over due for some bad fires
May be so, but you should see the continental divide up here in southwest Montana. 90% gray
GaryMcDonald
I'm smack dab in the middle of Florida and we're about to get fucked up. Gas is hard to come by, stores are selling out.
crushrollandspreadlove
Man only if we had some chemical weather manipulating system.
MrBananahat
No you fool! That is how you get fire hurricanes!

Hurricane goes to the west coast and evolves into a fire tornado.
As a Montanan, please. So much smoke.
IsItWorthReading
Then it would be a typhoon, not a hurricane
lakdav
The hurricanes are trying their best to get there, but there is half a continent in the way.
Bimmiq
Except burnt land is even worse taking in water
SpringToMyWinter
In the Pacific they're called typhoons.
IMakeBooze
South Pacific they are cyclones
victell
Here in Hawaii in the middle of the pacific we call them hurricanes
stealth13000
North east Pacific they are still called hurricanes
KazooH2oPolo
In Michigan we just say, sucks to be you
Chakra5
North west we call them big ol blowjobs.
hwatL4bloopy
and then mud slides everywhere
FnordGallop
Then they wouldn't be hurricanes.
IJustReallyWantedTo
I live in British Columbia. We would also like some hurricane please.
geonerd
As a Houstonian, be careful what you wish for.
TheresnoDanaonlyZuul
It rained in Vancouver today! Like...a whole millimetre!
KoreaNorth
One hurricane please
weejee37
With you there. I live in the Okanagan and have 3 fires within 20km. I haven't seen the sun in like a week!
redrockNOLAblues
No. You. Don't. - Houston
TrashPanda17
I live in Alberta, heard that if you guys get rain now the ash will pollute the rivers and drinking water?
DontLookAtMePenis
I haven't been able to place all of my mugs on my lawn in prep for a muggy joke in weeks
icescream
The haze and smog is unbearable. I want the blue sky back ffs.
AGiganticHamster
Me too :(

Aren't you technically on the west coast of canada?
SpartaWolf117
i live in arizona, we'll take 'em
WhisperingQuiverBiscuit
I'm also in Arizona and would like a couple of these to run into Los Angeles.
richtus
I'm also in Arizona and not having those potentially lethal weathers suits me just fine.
AccountCreatedToUpvoteDogs
Speak for yourself. I don't have hurricane or flood insurance. Plus, anything over 35% humidity is uncomfortable.
WhatOhShit
Nah, no we won't.
QueenOfNothingg
All our houses are either made of wood and drywall or adobe. No thanks lol.
mallic
Bruh, the i17 was flooded for three days when we got three inches of rain. We'd all die.
MonoclesAndManacles
Nope, definitely won't. I'd like to keep my house, thank you much.
valoriest
You have had SO much more rain the the Pacific NW! So, no. It is ours!
Phoenix hasn't gotten shit.
Was looking at Tucson, where I used to live. Near Portland, we have had 84 days with 12 drops of rain. SUCKS.
TheMortiestMortyfromC137
I feel like the winds would aggravate the problem
Insomnia297
I've never seen rain put out a fire of any considerable size tbh.
Theoldredeyes
Ya ima isn't heavy in rain fall its mostly high winds so it would escalate the problem. Harvey was tremendous amount of water lower wind.
birthdaybaboon
Perhaps mixing in some oil would increase the heat dissipation.
....
PercivalLongbottom
A direct hit could potentially do it with the shear amount of rainfall.
Except it's more wind then rain so it'll just spread the fire. Type 2 wildland firefighter experience.
TeddyBearHeaven
If only wildfires worked like birthday candles
I think you may be underestimating the amount of rain that falls during a serious hurricane. (Impossible but) If Irma "spawned" on top 1/2
Of the area in question I would think it would extinguish most if not all of the flames. 2/2
