"The origins of bomb as a meteorologic term are not entirely clear; although reputed to have been in spoken use for a number of decades prior to this, our earliest written record of this sense of bomb occurs in 1980."[0]
I call B.S. on "bomb" as a meterological term "for a number of decades prior", it is just another lame clickbait term. "The rapid intensification of a low-pressure system in which the barometric pressure of the system drops at least 24 millibars in 24 hours (also referred to as explosive cyclogenesis)"[1] is nothing like an actual bomb.
