A bomb cyclone is a cyclonic storm where the central pressure drops by 24 millibars (or more) in 24 hours. The 'bomb' label refers to the speed of the intensification of the pressure differential. Last night's bomb cyclone dropped its central pressure by almost 60 millibars in 24 hours. The term has been in use since the 1950's.
If they rename it the bomb tax and that the tax will stop bomb cyclones, maybe it will stop cyclones, or elect Poillievre and he can just bomb the carbon tax which would best help everyone.
We are still without power here in Ladysmith Vancouver Island. Thank goodness for our generator.
Why clean up the mess if we get the same mess again on friday...
Bomb cyclone? What’s with all these made up words?

Vancouver Island is the new Florida when it comes to severe rain storms…
Too bad the increasing carbon tax didn’t prevent this from happening..

They sure do. Our silver birch & fir snap usually 3-4 feet from the base. We pull them off the road all the time.
