There is a greater than 70% chance that an El Niño event will kick off in the equatorial tropical Pacific Ocean during the next four months, the Australian Bureau of Meteorology (BOM) said in a long-range forecast (http://www.bom.gov.au/climate/enso/#tabs=Overview) released on Tuesday
El Niño events are characterized by above average sea surface temperatures in a portion of the tropical Pacific Ocean, and can bring major changes to global weather patterns from the Western U.S. to sub-Saharan Africa
The Australian forecast comes as scientists studying surface and sub-surface conditions across the tropical Pacific have picked up signs of a potentially rapid transition to what could wind up being a more intense El Niño event than average Read more...
