Why 're-bomb' Austen is special (and also not)

Meteorologists state that storm Austen, referred to as a 'weather bomb', is typical for this time of year. The term 'weather bomb' describes a rapidly deepening storm depression, but it may not reach storm force in Belgium. Storms like Austen are driven by the jet stream, which lowers pressure and causes strong winds. While heavy storms are common in autumn and winter, there is no clear link to climate change. Current forecasts suggest Austen may be less intense than initially expected, but the storm season remains unpredictable with potential for more low-pressure systems and precipitation.
