A powerful bomb cyclone wreaked havoc across the southern Brazilian state of Parana on June 30, 2020.
The ferocious storm killed at least ten people as the region was lashed by winds of up to 120kph.
The severe tempest ripped up trees, tore roofs off buildings and sent locals running indoors, while bombarding the streets with high-speed debris.
Nine people died in Santa Catarina (SC) and one man was buried by his house in Rio Grande do Sul (RS).
Eyewitness video from Curitiba and elsewhere in Parana showcases the full fury of the bomb cyclone:

The term “bomb cyclone” can apply to both summer rain, and winter snow storms if they meet the following criteria from The National Ocean Service :
“Bombogenesis, a popular term used by meteorologists, occurs when a midlatitude cyclone rapidly intensifies, dropping at least 24 millibars over 24 hours. A millibar measures atmospheric pressure. This can happen when a cold air mass collides with a warm air mass, such as air over warm ocean waters. The formation of this rapidly strengthening weather system is a process called bombogenesis, which creates what is known as a bomb cyclone.“
