A rapidly deepening area of low pressure produced gorgeous satellite imagery yesterday and overnight off the Pacific Northwest and BC coasts. Lows that deepen, or strengthen, like this are called 'bomb-cyclones', which is derived from the term bombogenesis. Bombogenesis is a meteorological term describing the rapid intensification of a storm system. Specifically, it occurs when a mid-latitude cyclone's central pressure drops by at least 24 millibars within 24 hours, leading to the formation of a

The low pressure area east of Mindanao now has a high potential for storm formation in the next 24 hours, according to PAGASA. At 3 a.m., January 14, the LPA was located 755 km east of Davao City. Its trough or extension is already affecting parts of Visayas and Mindanao. The weather disturbance will be assigned the local name Ada once it develops into the country’s first tropical depression this year. Wind signals may be immediately raised in parts of Mindanao and Visayas. Ada is seen to move n

Three mid-latitude low pressure systems have developed near Australia, one of which is causing a dangerous mix of wind, rain and surf in Western Australia. | Weatherzone

A transient low pressure system brought cold, wet and windy weather to large parts of eastern New South Wales and eastern Victoria this week. The low formed rapidly as cold air collided with warm air off the coast, deepening, or 'bombing' from 1005hPa to 987hPa within 24 hours. Notable observations over the past days include: - Cold conditions across NSW on Tue 24 Aug, only just reaching double digits in Sydney - 130km/h wind gust at Kiama, NSW on Tue 24 Aug - 161mm of rainfall at Mt Waldron Fir
