All set to gobble up La Niña’s cool surface waters. What might this mean for the climate later this year?
Here we go again! For all their predictions, the so-called experts still can't tell us exactly what to expect. Just guesses. So, what are they guessing?
Forecasting what will happen next is difficult at this time of year. Keep that caveat in mind when I run this forecast by you: There is a 45 percent chance of a warming El Niño episode taking hold during October through December. That’s compared to a 35 percent of it happening randomly, according to Becker.
Like La Niña, El Niño can have a really big impact on weather in far-flung parts of the world. It also tends to boost global average temperatures, which are already rising over the long run thanks to our emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases.
In other words, they have not the faintest idea what will happen.
Stay tuned.
