Frequently Asked Questions

• What is a bomb cyclone?

  • Bomb cyclone is a term given to a rapidly strengthening storm that fulfills one important criterion. • Generally, pressure must drop 24 millibars (a unit of pressure) within 24 hours . • However, that benchmark is also based on the latitude of the storm.

• How do you calculate a ‘bomb cyclone?

  Once you do the calculation, you multiply that result by 24, and that is the number of millibars the storm’s pressure must drop to officially qualify it as a bomb cyclone at the given latitude.

• What is a tropical cyclone?

  A tropical cyclone is a weather phenomenon that is essentially a rapidly rotating storm system with characteristics such as a low-pressure center, strong winds, and thunderstorms that produce heavy rain, among others. Tropical cyclones in general, have different terms and names depending on their location and strength.

• What happens to air during a cyclone?

  In a cyclone, air near the ground is pushed toward the low-pressure center of the cyclone and then rises upward, expanding and cooling as it moves. As it cools, the rising air becomes more humid, leading to cloudiness and high humidity within the cyclone.
