The upcoming winter is shaping up to look different than the past several years. The shift to an El Nino weather pattern is in the works-causing a strong subtropicaljetstream and weakened polar jet stream.Brad Rippey, USDA meteorologist, shares the predictable changes to North American weather ...
El Nino pattern water temperatures compared to the average. (FOX Weather) "It’s not just that we have not seen these temperatures lately; it’s that we’ve never seen this kind of warming in the eastern Atlantic," Norcross said. With historic warming anomalies, Norcross said it's too ea...
The Sky News weather presenter added a switch back to El Nino could mean a hotter than usual 2024 in the UK though - and a frostier than usual winter beforehand. She said: "The WMO suggest that El Nino will arrive by the end of summer which would increase the chances of 'ho...
This is a swift reversal from the colder-than-normal sea surface temperatures that have dominated this part of the oceanfor the past several years. This erstwhile pattern, called La Niña, also had a noticeable impact on the world’s weather patterns. Odds of a stro...

such variations get averaged to near-zero in combining multiple runs of models. 2. 1998 was extra warm because of the El Nino. There will be, in any given period of sufficient length, some number of warmer years and cooler years relative to any longertrend. One can't conclude there is/...
The West African Monsoon (WAM) is a crucial component of the regional climate system, affecting agriculture, water resources and livelihoods across West Africa. Recent studies have suggested that changes in Arctic sea ice extent, driven primarily by anthropogenic climate change, could exert significant...
When El Nino approaches, driven by warm Pacific Ocean waters, we've come to expect both drenching seasonal rains in the southern U.S. and drought in the Amazon. Those opposite extremes have huge effects on society and are increasingly predictable thanks to decades of weather data. ...
