Scotland experienced a weather phenomenon yesterday that caused chaos across the country, it was known as a 'weather bomb'.
The definition of a weather bomb is one of the most severe of all winter storms and is somtimes known as a extratropical cyclone, the cause is an extreme frontal depression deepening by at least 24 millibars in 24 hours- all Greek to me
On twitter it was christened Hurricane Bawbag- a load of old wind
Fortuntely no one in Scotland has been killed with the worst storm in over 25 years. The transport network shuddered to a halt across Scotland, railway services axed and flights cancelled, there was hardly a town or village in Scotland that escaped damage of some kind
Electricity supplies were cut of by the storm and even some hospitals lost their power with their own genrators failing.
Anyway we're ok now down in the central belt but the north of Scotland may still suffer today as the blizzards may continue there
