Seems like she chopped the throttles too soon, failed to maintain penetration above V-Ref, didn’t flair and pounded it on the runway. The captain should have been flying in that weather, she was too green. Lucky they didn’t have a far worse outcome, and her career is over.

So this was a co pilot landing, in that weather?

If yes, then the PIC bears responsibility too for sure.
