942mb bomb cyclone!! Likely the lowest pressure ever recorded in this area of the Pacific Ocean #wawx

What a beast of a storm... this "super" bomb cyclone dropped 66mb in 24hrs. To be classified as a bomb cyclone, a low has to drop 24mb in 24hrs (1mb/hr). Truly a beauty looking down from satellite.
