TL;DR

A rapidly strengthening El Niño could become the strongest on record, with NOAA forecasting a very strong event this fall and winter; it could suppress Atlantic hurricane activity by increasing upper-level wind shear, but it is also expected to bring a wetter, potentially snowier winter to North Carolina, possibly easing drought—though exact outcomes are not guaranteed and forecasts will evolve.
