The first major snowstorm of 2018 is here in America and it’s being called the bomb cyclone. The name bomb cyclone is intense, to say the least, but it’s fitting because this winter storm is supposed to be just that.
Winds are supposed to reach up to 50 miles per hour, a whole foot of snow is predicted to fall and temperatures are supposed to reach a record-breaking low. Even though the storm is only directly affecting the east coast, the entire country is in a cold spell.
So how cold is it actually? Enough for the ocean to freeze.
And enough for a beach in Georgia to look like the Hamptons in the winter.
Almost 3,000 flights have been canceled and a ton of schools are shutting down. The crazy icy, cold and snowy conditions are unbelievable.
It’s even being called a “winter hurricane.”
The weather conditions are literally insane, but that doesn’t mean people aren’t having fun tweeting about the bomb cyclone.
The bomb cyclone is only supposed to last a few days and be over before the weekend is over. Go to the grocery store and stock up, help homeless people, don’t leave your pets outside, don’t drive and most of all stay safe!
