Intense winds smashed the Pacific Northwest on Wednesday morning as a strengthening low-pressure storm system, known colloquially as a “bomb cyclone,” moved in from the Pacific Ocean leaving chaos and at least one person dead in its wake along with mass power outages.

The rare storm system combines heavy rain with high wind to create what scientists call as an “atmospheric river.”

The phenomenon also known as “bombogenesis” could intensify so rapidly in the Pacific Northwest over the next 24-hours it has the potential to become a “triple-bomb” three times the strength of a regular bomb cyclone, according to the National Weather Service (NWS) in San Francisco.

To scare people of course.

In Seattle it’s referred to as “rain”, which is sort of a permanent condition there in the winter…

“bomb cyclone” “atmospheric river” "bombogenesis” "triple-bomb"

None of these woke "weather" terms existed before Al Gore started the "Global Warming-Climate Change" hoax.

The left are insane- pretty soon their asinine forcasts will be saying things like

“a serial killer wind and rain salvo will devastate the north and south, west and east- there is no place to hide! Everyone mask up and shelter inplace... not that it will do any good”

The genesis for atmospheric river was coined by research meteorologists when they first observed the phenomenon on satellite photos. It looked like a river to them, thus the name.

Poor hyperventilating weather peeps. They have no idea what the real PNW ‘bomb cyclone’ is, but hat tip to the worker bees in the upper worlds for coordinating the number for this thread.
