San Diego to Experience Mild Impact from Bomb Cyclone as Northern California Bears Brunt

There have been two fatalities and hundreds of thousands of people without power due to the severe weather disturbances created by a meteorological phenomena known as a “bomb cyclone,” which has been affecting the West Coast. Although a bomb cyclone, which intensifies quickly, has caused severe conditions in Northern California, it is expected to weaken as it moves south, with less severe effects in Southern California.

In a report that NBC San Diego was able to get, NBC 7 meteorologist Greg Bledsoe stated, “We shouldn’t expect much rain down here.” It is predicted that there will be a slight probability of rain starting Saturday evening and continuing into Sunday morning. According to the reports, San Diego County may receive less than a tenth of an inch of rain in the valleys and along the coast, and a little more in the higher areas. It is anticipated that the system would not provide any rainfall in the desert regions.

The process of bombogenesis, which refers to a cyclone that increases explosively, is where the word “bomb cyclone” originates. Such cyclones are frequently accompanied by an atmospheric river that transports enormous volumes of moisture in a slender band across the sky, according to CBS 8. This can result in a lot of precipitation, which can help with rain and snowfall but can also have disastrous effects on flooding.

It is anticipated that this bomb cyclone’s effects on San Diego will lessen in severity. The highest accumulations are anticipated on Sunday, with periods of light to heavy rain predicted from Saturday through Monday. However, because of the storm, the local forecast team expects higher cloud cover and colder temperatures. Any remaining storm systems are predicted to stall north of San Diego County without affecting the holiday weather, so Thanksgiving is expected to be dry.
