A hurricane itself is a low pressure system, but a high pressure system in the same general region can affect the path a hurricane takes. A hurricane can get caught in the clockwise airflow around a high pressure system. For example, many hurricanes in the Atlantic are affected by the Bermuda High, a semipermanent high pressure area over the northern Atlantic. Hurricanes under its influence generally start out moving west and turn north in the western Atlantic or Caribbean.
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.
they effect communities because the water is so powerful it destroys any and everything in its path.
All of them.
Errors in forecasting the forward speed of a hurricane can affect the time available for evacuation. Early evacuation can save lives.
A hurricane moves in a very wide path over water.

Whether or not a plastic shed is safe in a hurricane depends on the strength of the hurricane, the distance from the hurricane, and how sturdy the shed is. If the shed is in the path of a category 5 hurricane, it probably will be destroyed. If it is in the path of a category 1 hurricane, it may survive. It is not recommended to be inside a plastic shed during any type of hurricane. If a category 5 hurricane is approaching, it is best to evacuate, as nothing is really safe.

Being able to predict the hurricane's path enables people in the path are warned and they can take steps to get ready to either move temporary away to a safer area, or to batten down and wait out the storm.
