In fact, 2022 was the warmest La Niña on record, and adding the additional heat of El Niño means the next year or two will likely climb even higher on the list of hottest years on record. “If we do now enter an El Niño phase, this is likely to fuel another spike in global temperatures,” said WMO Secretary-General Petteri Taalas. The more widespread concern with the return to El Niño conditions for the first time since the summer of 2019 will be the warming ocean’s impact on global temperatures and heat waves. That’s a cause for concern for many Californians, given the surplus of moisture across the state in the past two months.
“The lingering impacts of multi-year La Niña is basically due to its long duration, and continuous circulation anomaly, which are different from the single-peak La Niña event.” “Even though La Niña is coming to an end we are likely to see latent impacts for some time to come and therefore some of the … rainfall impacts of La Niña may still continue,” the World Meteorological Organization said. North northwest wind between 6 and 14 mph. Cloudy through mid morning, then gradual clearing, with a high near 55. “Southern California is generally much more impacted with El Nino conditions bringing higher than normal precipitation,” the National Weather Service in Sacramento, California said.īut having a very robust La Niña winter could still have lingering effects this summer even as we transition into more of an El Niño pattern. Mostly cloudy, with a steady temperature around 41. The weather service warned of more flooding, particularly in. Another atmospheric river is set to hit the Central Coast Monday through Wednesday, with the highest rainfall hitting the Santa Cruz Mountains, the National Weather Service said Saturday. Traditionally, El Niño brings increased rain and snow across the Golden State, especially in the cool season, leading to flooding, landslides, and coastal erosion. Another atmospheric river on the way for Santa Cruz County. El Niño also significantly impacts California’s weather and could mean a continuation of the current wet pattern already plaguing the state. El Niño is associated with a band of warm ocean water that forms in the central and eastern Pacific Ocean, which has consequences for weather patterns around the globe.
