Bomb (meteorology)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bomb is a meteorological term for a baroclinic low pressure area characterized by a rapid pressure fall of at least 24 millibars in 24 hours. It is applied only to cold-air storms. When this occurs with an offshore low, severe damage to coastal areas can result.
