El Niño Could Mean A Milder Chicago Winter, Snow Still Possible

NOAA projects a strong El Niño could push Chicago toward a warmer-than-usual fall and winter, with a greater than 90% chance of a “very strong” El Niño this fall/winter and a 69% chance of a historic event for Oct–Dec. Chicago has a 40–50% chance of above-normal winter temperatures, though snow and severe cold can still occur; snowfall is not Guaranteed to be low—some El Niño winters see above-average snow. Precipitation chances are roughly equal for above/near/below average, and El Niño’s broader global impacts can be significant beyond Chicago.

El Niño's Winter Impact: From San Diego to Florida, NJ to Houston, and Washington

El Niño's Winter Impact: From San Diego to Florida, NJ to Houston, and Washington

El Niño is expected to bring wetter-than-normal conditions across the United States this winter, a significant change from the previous three years dominated by La Niña. While the southern states have the best chance of experiencing heavier precipitation, San Diego may not see above-average rainfall despite the presence of El Niño. The forecast indicates equal chances of above or below normal winter precipitation for San Diego and Imperial counties. Although El Niño is not likely to impact drought conditions in the region, most of California has already been relieved of drought conditions. The seasonal outlook suggests that drought improvement is expected in some parts of the country, while drought development is likely in others. However, it is important to note that these outlooks are not guarantees, and local impacts may vary.

El Nino's Impact on Global Weather Patterns.

El Nino has returned and is expected to strengthen as winter approaches, potentially generating another wet winter. However, predicting the impact on Utah is difficult due to its lack of statistical relationship with Pacific Ocean temperatures. The NOAA says this El Nino formed two months earlier than expected, giving it additional time to strengthen. It is too early to say for sure what kind of winter Utah may have in store.

El Niño's Impact on Summer Weather in Central Indiana and Beyond

El Niño's Impact on Summer Weather in Central Indiana and Beyond

El Niño is developing and transitioning from the neutral phase to the El Niño phase, which can have global implications in the jet stream. The Climate Prediction Center is favoring above-average precipitation for Indiana this summer, while temperatures have equal chances of being above or below average. Past summers with El Niño had above-average precipitation in central Indiana.

El Niño Set to Begin This Summer with Potentially Significant Impact

El Niño Set to Begin This Summer with Potentially Significant Impact

The odds of El Niño, the warm phase of the climate pattern known as ENSO, being in place for next winter are now up to 93 percent. Notable warming of the waters in the eastern equatorial Pacific has further increased the likelihood that El Niño will begin by late spring or early summer. Assuming we’re in some form of El Niño next winter, that typically means a warmer Pacific Northwest, wetter in the south, southwest and coastal southeast with drier weather in the interior southeast.

El Niño Watch Issued by National Weather Service

El Niño Watch Issued by National Weather Service

The National Weather Service has issued an El Niño watch as scientists observe early signs of the climate pattern known to boost global temperatures, predicting it is more likely than not to arrive in the coming months. El Niño is marked by warmer-than-normal surface waters in the tropical Pacific Ocean that have influences on weather patterns around the globe. The warm Pacific waters tend to produce more cloud cover, which encourages more of the sun’s warmth to be trapped in the atmosphere.

World Meteorological Organization Retires Hurricane Names Fiona and Ian

World Meteorological Organization Retires Hurricane Names Fiona and Ian

The World Meteorological Organization has retired the names Fiona and Ian from the rotating list of storm names due to their devastating impact on life and property. Both storms caused widespread destruction and fatalities. The Atlantic hurricane season saw 14 named storms, which is exactly average. This is the sixth time in the past eight years that at least two names were retired from the WMO’s lists in a single year. The storm names come from a WMO committee composed of meteorology and hydrology experts from North America, Central America, and the Caribbean.
