Could we have a “Super” El Niño by years end



“Super” El Niño — by fall or winter.

This is according to a just-released update from NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center that says there is a 2 in 3 chance that El Niño’s peak strength will be strong or very strong.

El Niño is a natural climate cycle that happens when the tropical Pacific Ocean warms enough to trigger shifts in wind patterns throughout the atmosphere, which has a ripple effect on weather conditions worldwide.

Droughts and heat waves can flourish in some regions, fueling wildfire danger and water supply concerns, while others are swamped by flooding rainfall. El Niño’s far-reaching effects can also stymie the Atlantic hurricane season. On a larger scale, it causes already rising global temperatures from human-caused climate change to spike even higher. Stronger El Niños make all these impacts more likely.
Super El Niño odds increase

El Niño occurs about every two to seven years and lasts nine to 12 months. Its strength is measured by how far water temperatures rise above average in a patch of the equatorial Pacific Ocean, and it usually peaks in the Northern Hemisphere’s winter.

Weak El Niño conditions develop once the temperature rises over 0.5 degrees Celsius above average for an extended period of time. Water temperatures must be more than 2 degrees above average for it to be considered a very strong or Super El Niño."

You think global warming is real

[tacnet]

Anybody who doesn't realize that climate change is real and it's happening right now must have their head in the sand. You cant ignore millions of scientists from all over the world in favor of some conspiracy theory you found online

In layman terms we're going to have a warmer than average Winter if it happens.

I can't wait for Winter I love the cold.

From ktla .com this morning, read this it affects our state.

"A strong El Niño is coming to California. You may notice something different at the beach"

Where are all the people who say global warming is not a problem?????????????

Exactly. They all disappear when we are seeing record heat waves etc.

Let's say it's going to be hot and make it simple.

When did the first recorded El Nino start?

It will be the biggest baddest El Nino ever.
