The current El Niño is now one of the strongest on record, new data shows, catapulting it into rare “super El Niño” territory, but forecasters believe that La Niña is likely to develop in ...

El Niño and La Niña significantly impact Earth's weather patterns. We explore the events in more detail here and take a look at how they impact Earth's weather.

El Niño and La Niña are opposing climate patterns that shift where rainfall occurs in tropics, said Michelle L’Heureux, a climate scientist at the NOAA Climate Prediction Center.

El Niño helped drive global average temperatures to new records over the last year. Forecasters say it's waning, but that 2024 may still be one for the record books.

El Niño and La Niña drive seasonal weather patterns over Canada and across the world. Explore these high-impact events and how they affect weather here at home.

Rippey says just like the impacts of El Niño are still being felt four months after its peak, the claws of La Niña may not come until fall. “Even if we make that transition into La Niña by ...

A strong El Niño pattern has been in place over the Pacific Ocean during the 2023-2024 winter season. This year's winter impacts of warmer weather may vary wildly as the Pacific Northwest ...

As the transition to La Niña occurs, El Niño will weaken, but its impacts on U.S. weather are expected to persist through April, the Climate Prediction Center said in a statement Thursday.

The strong El Niño is rapidly ending, and we may see the opposite condition called La Niña developing. The switch from El Niño to La Niña will probably impact our summer weather.

El Niño and La Niña — opposing extremes that cycle with each other as sea surface temperatures, rainfall, air pressure and atmospheric circulation vary — play a major role in global ...
