SYDNEY, June 28 (Xinhua) -- A report from researchers at a number of top Australian universities has warned of a return of La Nina for the third consecutive year this spring, and has asked governments to prepare for further intense wet weather. The report from the Australian Research Council...

We’ve been waiting for this weather-altering pattern to show up for most of 2024—but it’s still missing. Why is La Niña running so late, and will we see the pattern develop in time for Canada's winter season? DON’T MISS: Will winter redeem its reputation? A sneak ...

The Agency for Meteorology, Climatology, and Geophysics (BMKG) claimed that La-Nina anomalies were observed to occur in the Pacific Ocean at moderate strength at the end of 2020. The impacts of the La-Nina event with extreme weather include sea-level rise (up to 15 cm), increasing wave he...
“The current extremely wet conditions in south-eastern Queensland and coastal New South Wales are caused by an easterly atmospheric trough moving over the region,” says Nina Ridder, a research associate at the UNSW Centre of Excellence for Climate Extremes, whose work focuses on weather and extr...
With NOAA predicting anEl NinotoLa Ninaflip in the summer, Lower Michigan is expected to see above-normal precipitation. This prediction is based partly on the six other times since 1950 that we've seen a similar switch in Pacific Ocean temperatures. ...
Vera Petrunina // Shutterstock What is the difference between climate and weather? Weather is the daily or weekly changes that happen in the atmosphere. Climate refers to what the weather is like over a long period of time, sometimes over a few decades. Climate is what you think will happen...
CNN Weather The phenomenon is marked by cooler than average water temperatures in the equatorial Pacific, along with corresponding changes in upper atmosphere patterns — and these changes influence weather globally. The atmosphere started to look La Niña-like in the fal...
However, the questions related to those eccentric El Nino and La Nina events can be well explained by suitable SSTAs in the subtropical Pacific. Thus, the leading SSTAs in the subtropical Pacific can be treated as an independent indicator for ENSO prediction, on the basis of the oceanic heat...
