Bomb Cyclone Brings Severe Weather to the West Coast

A record-setting bomb cyclone, with low-pressure levels akin to a major hurricane, is set to impact the northwestern U.S. and Canada, bringing heavy rain, snow, and strong winds. This intense storm, driven by an unusual atmospheric river, will deliver significant precipitation to California's northern Coast Ranges and heavy snow to the Klamath Mountains. The storm's intensity is linked to a loopy jet stream and a North Pacific marine heat wave, with potential for an active winter season ahead.

Bomb Cyclone and Atmospheric River to Hit West Coast with Severe Weather

A bomb cyclone is expected to hit the Pacific Coast, bringing strong winds and potential flooding to the Puget Sound area, with gusts reaching up to 70 mph offshore and 65 mph inland. Mount Rainier faces a blizzard warning with up to a foot of snow and 60 mph winds. While the system could cause minor to moderate flooding, heavy rains like those in 2022 are not anticipated. The worst winds are expected to impact Vancouver Island, with conditions easing by Wednesday.

West Coast Prepares for Intense Bomb Cyclone and Atmospheric River

A 'bomb cyclone' is expected to hit the West Coast, particularly California and Oregon, from November 19 to 21, bringing high winds, heavy rains, and potential flash flooding. The storm will undergo 'bombogenesis,' a rapid pressure drop, intensifying its impact. Areas from the San Francisco Bay to Eureka, California, will experience extreme conditions, with wind gusts up to 70 mph and rainfall of 2 to 4 inches per day. This event highlights the shifting patterns of atmospheric rivers due to climate change, which could lead to more immediate flooding and less snowpack, affecting water supplies.
