NOAA Unveils New Alert System for La Niña and El Niño
NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center today issued the first La Niña
advisory under its new El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) Alert
System. Forecasters expect La Niña to influence weather patterns
across the United States during the remainder of the winter and into
the early spring.
The new ENSO alert system includes La Niña and El Niño watches and
advisories which the Climate Prediction Center will issue when
specific conditions exist.
- La Niña or El Niño Watch: conditions in the equatorial Pacific are
favorable for the development of La Niña or El Niño conditions in the
next three months.
- La Niña or El Niño Advisory: La Niña or El Niño conditions have
developed and are expected to continue.
