This particular bomb cyclone is located 300 miles off the coast of Washington and is mixing with an atmospheric river, which could result in up to 15 inches of rain in some parts of northern ...
As a major storm moves in to blast the Northeast U.S. with high winds and heavy rain this week, many may be hearing the term "bomb cyclone." You may have heard or read about a bomb cyclone or a ...
The “anomalously strong” storm system was considered a “bomb cyclone,” which occurs when a cyclone intensifies rapidly. Another, albeit weaker, bomb cyclone may develop and rapidly ...
Explosive cyclogenesis (also referred to as a weather bomb, [1] [2] [3] meteorological bomb, [4] explosive development, [1] bomb cyclone, [5] [6] or bombogenesis [7] [8] [9]) is the rapid deepening of an extratropical cyclonic low-pressure area. The change in pressure needed to classify something as explosive cyclogenesis is latitude dependent ...
A bomb cyclone occurs during the rapid intensification of a cyclone located between the tropics and the polar regions, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. It can happen when a cold air mass collides with a warm air mass, which is something that can occur over ocean waters, the agency says. The measurement needed to ...
Bomb cyclones form when the conditions at the surface and at the jet stream level are ideal for the storm to intensify. The jet stream is a narrow band of strong winds in the upper atmosphere.
Northeast Pacific bomb cyclone may refer to one of the following: November 2014 Bering Sea cyclone; October 2021 Northeast Pacific bomb cyclone;
A powerful extratropical cyclone developed c. November 18, 2024, in the Northeast Pacific and struck the Western United States and Western Canada. [9] [10] The storm underwent bombogenesis, rapidly dropping its central pressure [11] to a record-tying level of 942 millibars (27.8 inHg). [9]
