No. They can make vague estimates of general hurricane activity but no definite predictions.
A storm's path may be projected five to seven days ahead of time, but with no real certainty.

∙ 10y agoScientists are constantly using satellites to monitor weather activity.. One of the things they are on the lookout for are tropical disturbances. These are disorganized areas of low pressure with some showers and thunderstorms. They also see if conditions such as humidity, sea surface temperatures, and wind speed favor these disturbances gaining strength and organizing. If they are, scientists know such a system may develop into a tropical depression and possibly a tropical storm or hurricane.
When a hurricane develop,s scientists continue to track it, keeping tabs on conditions that could strengthen or weaken the storm, such as those mentioned earlier. They also monitor the location and movment and other weather systems, as the winds from those systems affect where a hurricane will go.

Can scientists make a hurricane change direction?
No, scientists can't make a hurricane change direction. As it is, we still have trouble even predicting the path a hurricane will take. We are not even on the level of influencing what a hurricane will do.

When out at sea how do you know when a hurricane will occur?
There is no certainty in predicting a hurricane, but when conditions are right (warm waters, warm moist air, little to no wind shear) it is possible to determine if a tropical disturbance is likely to become a hurricane.
When and where hurricane occur?
hurricane occurs in wet seasons hurricane occurs in hot wet climates
