Identify the incorrect statement about Bomb cyclone or bombogenesis
It is a rapidly deepening tropical cyclonic low-pressure area, predominantly found in continental settings.
It is a storm caused by a collision of warm air and cold air which develop into rotating storm-like pattern and lead to an explosive deepening of pressure.
A storm is considered a ‘bomb’ when the pressure drops rapidly — at least 24 millibars in 24 hours.
None of the above
Explosive cyclogenesis or bomb cyclone or bombogenesis refers in a strict sense to a rapidly deepening extra-tropical cyclonic low-pressure area. To enter this category, the central pressure of a depression at 60° latitude is required to decrease by 24 mbar (hPa) or more in 24 hours. What makes a storm a “bomb” is how fast the atmospheric pressure falls; falling atmospheric pressure is a characteristic of all storms. By definition, the barometric pressure must drop by at least 24 millibars in 24 hours for a storm to be called a bomb cyclone; the formation of such a storm is called bombogenesis. This is a predominantly maritime, winter event, but also occurs in continental settings. In other words, bomb cyclones are mostly found over open oceans and are rarely seen over land. Hence, statement (1) is wrong and also because it is wrongly mentioned as tropical cyclonic low-pressure area. Do you know? The United States East Coast and Midwest were battling record-breaking low temperatures during January 2018 as cold Arctic air continued to sweep through the region followed by the freezing winter storm — bomb cyclone or bombogenesis. This cyclone is essentially a storm caused by a collision of warm air and cold air which develop into rotating storm-like pattern and lead to an explosive deepening of pressure.
