Your idea of disrupting the energy lines of the system has merit but it would probably be better to start earlier and in a different way. I was thinking of something along the lines of massive reflective oil slicks to lessen the heating of ocean water in certain areas during certain building cycles, which could significantly decrease the strength of a potential storm if not prevent some completely.

I was thinking about minor alterations of its course as it starts up, before it's a full-force storm. I was considering doing this to a tropical depression when it was still a manageable size. It would still take a lot of energy (as far as I know, fuel-air results in the most concussive force short of anyhting nuclear) but the cost of disrupting a storm could be less than the potential loss of life and property.
