Some say yes, some say no, but El Nino is a go! 
El Nino is upon us! According to the scientists at the National Weather Service and the Climate Prediction Center, the telltale signs of El Nino are starting to emerge, align and settle. It looks as though these positive weather patterns have settled and the odds that El Nino is forming are very optimistic! Even better, there is hope for further development and strength increasing throughout the fall and winter. Yes!



With the warm ocean temps in the Tropical Pacific (hello recent hurricane’s off the West coast), and the extreme heat patterns that California has survived through this summer, an El Nino year is favorable.

Dan Collins, a scientist at the CPC recently said “We like to see temperatures at this level for about a month before we declare we have El Niño conditions”.

So let's all mark our calenders for October 19th, and all together say "El Nino Hooray"!
