A bomb cyclone is a storm that strengthens so fast that the central atmospheric pressure plunges 0.71 of an inch (24 millibars) or more in 24 hours or less. The central pressure in Tuesday's bomb ...
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 ...
The bomb cyclone had a minimum central pressure of 942 millibars (27.8 inHg) at its peak, making it the most powerful cyclone recorded in the Northeast Pacific. [2] The system had severe impacts across Western North America, before dissipating on October 26. The storm shattered multiple pressure records across parts of the Pacific Northwest ...
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]
Following the bomb cyclone, the region faces days of rain, "life-threatening flooding'' and snow at higher elevations from another Pacific storm, the National Weather Service said Wednesday. That ...
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 ...
