Experts from the National Office of Oceanic and Atmospheric Research ((NOAA) predict that this fall there is a 60% chance of a La Niña phenomenon that will last until March 2025.
La Niña is a natural climate phenomenon that affects global weather patterns. It can cause abnormal rainfall in some regions, and droughts in others.
La Niña is a cool phase of the climate cycle. During this period, the strengthened trade winds raise cold waters in the eastern Pacific Ocean, which affects the jet stream and the distribution of precipitation around the world.
The recent triple La Niña cycle, which lasted from 2020 to 2023, caused significant weather changes across the planet.
Although scientists continue to study the relationship between climate change and the phenomena of La Niña and El Niño, there is still no clear answer to the question of how global warming affects the frequency of these cycles.
Some models indicate a possible increase in the number of El Niño events in the future.
Thus, the approaching La Niña may affect the winter weather conditions in different regions of the world.
El Niño refers to higher-than-average sea surface temperatures that periodically develop in the east-central equatorial Pacific Ocean. It represents the warm phase of the ENYUK cycle. La Niña refers to periodic cooling of sea surface temperatures in the east-central equatorial Pacific Ocean.
