I would first like to see them control a hurricane

There actually is research into methods to weaken and 'steer' hurricanes. Kind of funny in a way. Hurricanes provide a lot of benefits. On of these is that they act as giant vacuum cleaners pulling heat from the surface and ejecting it into the upper atmosphere. Stopping them would not be a good idea.

Yes. Research has been conducted. Stopping them probably would not be good. Neither would be stopping an earthquake (a natural way for Earth's crust to release built-up stresses) or a volcano (a natural way to release built-up pressure). That is my point. Trying to control nature is NOT a good idea, whether it is trying to control a hurricane or trying to control the climate.
