Purely hypothetically, what would happen if you dropped a H-bomb on a Cat 5 hurricane?

Preferably its dropped when the hurricane is directly over one of those Caribbean islands thats densely populated with negroes

Think of the tiny radius of explosion of a standard h bomb compared to the size of a hurricane

Virtually nothing, though I'd imagine something on the level of the Tsar Bomba would cause some form of noticeable brief cloud evaporation within a sector of the cyclone.

It's fart in the wind

>>16829301
it would explode

Yes, the scale is all wrong for it to work but does bring up the question of how large of an explosion would one need to tear apart a tornado? And were that possible, would there be consequences of some sort beyond that of the explosion?

I'm sure pouring thermal and kinetic energy in a runaway spinning system sustained by heat is fine.
