first hand experience with cyclone in NYC
famous as bomb cyclone which they say at some point NY will be even colder than Mars
what is bomb cyclone
The word bombogenesis comes from combining "bomb" and "cyclogenesis," or meteorology speak for storm formation. Technically speaking, a storm undergoes bombogenesis when it's central low pressure drops at least 24 millibars in 24 hours, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). (A millibar is a unit of pressure that essentially measures the weight of the atmosphere overhead. Typical sea-level pressure is about 1,010 millibars.)
Storms occur when a rising column of air leaves an area of low pressure at the Earth's surface, which in turn sucks in the air from surrounding areas. As that air converges, the storm starts to spin faster and faster, like a twirling ice skater who pulls in her arms, which leads to higher wind speeds. The closer you are to the center of the storm, the stronger the winds.
If a storm is strong enough or deepens (drops in pressure) rapidly enough, its winds can reach hurricane-force, or 74 mph (119 km/h) or higher. Of the 43 North Atlantic storms that achieved hurricane-force winds during the winter of 2013-2014, 30 underwent bombogenesis, according to NOAA.
Bombogenesis tends to occur when a strong jet stream high in the atmosphere interacts with an existing low-pressure system near a warm ocean current like the Gulf Stream. The jet stream pulls air out of the storm's rising column of air, causing the surface low to deepen.***
the noise of th thunder was around all night and morning and it getting more & more
here is the first picture i got when i come out of house
snow already every where
walking was tough in this snow with blizzard hitting your face but at the same time fun
remind me of challenges we had during sandstorm but much more easier and not harmful as sandstorm
all the steps converted to a slope by snow
here you see the park in front of Yankee stadium is in haze completely like a ghost park
next picture is Yankee stadium itself with this snow its almost gray
completely different picture comparing to a match-day here
here is a match-day one to compare
the good point is whenever there is snow falling the temp is not that cold
but the wind change this situation and make it real cold
so i looked for a warm-hole to fit inside it :)))
I'm joking here is the entrance of the NYC subway
guys be careful one guy slipped in-front of me on the stairs but thanks god he is ok and safe
really take care of the steps these days to prevent a hospital visit
i just amazed how this snow penetrated through to get to here!!!
and here is couple of picture of the concrete forest(Manhattan) in Myst :)))
it was too cold to take more pictures sorry :)
this is the last one
in the background of this picture is Chrysler Building faded in fog
now its time for warm tea
wish you all a good day
