Leah Nowell - La Nina Arrives to Mess with Winter Weather

11/12/16

Summary: The long awaited La Niña, which was first predicted back in April, has finally arrived in the Pacific Ocean, and it's expected to stick around through the winter. La Niña conditions, which are characterized by below-normal sea surface temperatures in the tropical Pacific, were observed during October and have persisted into November, this prompted the CPC to raise the ENSO Alert System from a La Niña Watch to a La Niña Advisory. For the United States, NOAA forecasters say the current La Niña will "likely contribute to drier and warmer weather in the southern US and wetter, cooler conditions in the Pacific Northwest and across to the northern tier of the nation this winter."


Synthesis: La Niña arriving could synthesize to when the english colonists came to America in the sense that a new thing has come to possibly change the future of what was already there.
