If a 500 Megaton Nuclear Bomb was Detonated in the eye of a Cat5 Hurricane what would happen to the Hurricane?

Question

Let's say the Hurricane is over a very warm ocean and the bomb is detonated at center of the base of the Eye wall.

Answer 1

Only one way to find out.

Answer 2

The storm's intensity would take a very sharp jump because of all the water vapor injected into it; it would take some high-powered math to estimate how much of a jump. I think a Cat5 storm has a lot more than 500 megaton of energy already, but the bomb's energy might be amplified by the energy of the warm water it hurles into the atmosphere.

Answer 3

the surrondings would blow up probaly and the power of that explosion might be tripled quadripled .... because of that bomb being indide the hurricanes walls. u know what? thats my guess!

Answer 4

It's extremely doubtful that there would be any impact at all (besides spewing tons of radioactive material into a giant mass of wind presumably headed towards land).  Consider that a hurricane releases on the order of 10^14 Watts of energy continuously.  This is roughly equivalent of detonating a modest size nuke every 10-20 seconds.  That's not pretty.

Presumably detonating a nuke is attempting to displace so much air that the hurricane disperses and does not reform.  This would probably take on the order of moving a billion tons of air, which really isn't feasible.
