[edit]Is this a specific class of nor'easter? Should merge? Potatoswatter 07:41, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
- See tropical equivalent, rapid intensification. Probably merits its own article. – Chacor 16:04, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
- I'm not certain that all "bombs" are noreasters. For one thing, the term "bomb" has been used only for storms which produce a sudden large quantity of snow while most noreasters are rainmakers. I say hold the merge for now. Tmangray 16:09, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
- "Bombs" are not nor'easters, but some nor'easters can be bombs, as can European windstorms and Pacific NW storms etc...It's just a name given to extratropical cyclones whose central pressure drops by a certain amount at a certain latitude in a given time, so it's a term applicable to such extratropical cyclones.Lacunae (talk) 16:43, 3 April 2013 (UTC)
- Nor'easters are some storms in a part of North America, e.g. the New England states. They may or may not be "bombs", and the "bombs" in this area may or not be nor'easters. And explosive cyclogenesis do also occur at other places. Pål Jensen (talk) 20:12, 20 February 2022 (UTC)

Rename?
[edit]I don't know if this article should be renamed or not. Looking at the current literature it seems "Explosive cyclogenesis" is favoured as a neutral term, although the original paper describing this term Sanders and Gyakum (1980) uses the "bomb" terminology, and "bomb" may be the WP:COMMONNAME. It is described as not being a perfect meterological term,[1] but I've not found any evidence that Explosive cyclogenesis is any more meteorological. I suspect it could even be British English vs American English although the idea seems to have emerged out of the Bergen School of Meteorology in the 1940s. Lacunae (talk) 16:43, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

I'm not sure how reliable a source, but it looks like this is also referred to as "Bombogenesis". http://www.theweatherprediction.com/habyhints/188/ Davenport651 13:42, 21 Jan 2014 (UTC)

Application to only extratropical systems.
[edit]@LightandDark2000: Just an FYI, though you reverted the change in question so you probably thought of this also. I think the latitude component in the deepening probably limits the usefulness of the metric to only extra tropical storms, requiring only a 12 mb drop at 25N.Lacunae (talk) 19:42, 13 November 2017 (UTC)
- For both tropical and extratropical systems, bombing out (or explosive cyclonegenesis) requires a 24 mbar or greater pressure drop within a 24-hour period. Though I have though about just how the 2 terms seem to overlap, with the only apparent difference being the location/storm type each term is applied to. LightandDark2000 (talk) 16:13, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
- I think the pressure drop is now deprecated in tropical systems for rapid intensification, and such a pressure drop was 42mb in 24 hours, but the term is now defined in terms of wind speed increase. I think the two have always been distinct in regards to their definitions, though have been extensively conflated.Lacunae (talk) 23:43, 15 November 2017 (UTC)
