JDN,

Its the liability of the situation. Hurricane destruction is an 'Act of God' and no one is responsible.

However, imagine an experiment on a mid-Atlantic hurricane. Its predicted to peter out in mid-Ocean and an experiment is run, but fails. The hurricane, as they are prone to do, then re-energizes and heads to Miami. Lawsuits abound....

Doesn't matter that it may have done that anyway.
