Diano4ka-milaya [45]3 years ago

A bomb cyclone is basically a storm that can rival the strength of a hurricane. They're called bomb cyclones or "weather bombs" because of the process that creates them (bombogenesis) basically bombogenesis is a storm that undergoes rapid strengthening.

The word bombogenesis comes from two words: bomb and cyclogenesis. All storms are cyclones and genesis means the creation or beginning and in this case bomb means explosive development so all together it means explosive storm strengthening

Bomb cyclones happen more in winter months and can carry hurricane force winds, cause coastal flooding and HEAVY snow. Bomb cyclones happen when a quickly forming storm results in a drop in atmospheric pressure of at least 24 millibars.

Basically its like a hurricane but stronger sometimes. The wind and flooding make it more like a hurricane but the blizzards and snow make it stronger

Answer:

The tides would occur at a much lower intensity.

Explanation:

Tides are caused by two main factors, the moon, and the wind. The moon plays a bigger part. SO, if the moon were to suddenly begone, scientists estimate that there would still be tides, but just much smaller, maybe about 1/3 of their original size.

The lake effect occurs when ____ air mass moves over a ____ body of water.
AURORKA [14]

Answer:

-dry

-large

Explanation:

The lake effect occurs when dry air mass moves over a large body of water. When there's a dry air mass, be it warm or cold, and it moves over some large lake, thus large body of water, it changes its properties. The dry air mass picks up a lot of moisture while passing above the large body of water. As it does that, the air mass becomes wet. As it continues to move, this air mass will eventually come upon a natural barrier which will make it accumulate and go up, at certain area, the water vapor to condensate, and lot of precipitation to occur. Because this process will be happening constantly, the area will be receiving solid amount of precipitation, though the side of the water body from which the dry air mass is coming will be relatively dry.
