During these anomalous years, just a few powerful atmospheric rivers could transform an expected dry La Niña year into a wet one (1967, 2011, 2017 and 2023), or their absence could turn a ...
AUSTIN, Texas (KXAN) – We’re getting our first look into next winter with the latest Climate Prediction Center ENSO (El Niño ...
The El Niño event is spawned by warmer than average temperatures in the Central Pacific called the "Nino 3.4" region. When sea surface temperatures are warm here by more than 0.5C or higher for a few ...
We’ll likely see better-than-even chances that our ongoing La Niña will fade by the end of the spring. DON’T MISS: What happens when El Niño and La Niña disappear? La Niña is the cold ...

The term La Niña is used to define the phenomenon in which the water temperature of the Pacific Ocean periodically cools and produces a measurable shift in the weather pattern. El Niño is the opposite ...
There is a 60% probability that conditions will shift back to ENSO-neutral conditions (neither El Niño nor La Niña) during March–May 2025, increasing to 70% for April–June 2025. Meanwhile ...
