The devastating impacts of ‘rain bombs’

9:44

A rain bomb is an enormous amount of rain, dumped practically all at once, by hurricane-force winds blowing directly into the ground. Rain bombs can be deadly and they’re really hard to predict. “Rain Bombs” is the title of a new documentary from The World’s partners at NOVA. Sue van den Heever is an atmospheric scientist at Colorado State University and is featured in the documentary. She recently spoke to Host Carolyn Beeler.
