Why it’s so hard to predict California’s El Niño Winter this year

🌀 It's an El Niño year for California, a phenomenon often synonymous with warmer wintertime temperatures and increased rainfall. But is there a twist this year?
‪@UCLA‬ scientist Daniel Swain ‪@WeatherWest‬ - the go-to expert for understanding California's unique weather patterns and climate, sheds light on the peculiarities of this winter's weather.
We delve into how tropical ocean temperatures and unexpected global climate trends could reshape California's winter this year.

    It's not just our oceans that are warming up. Cities have been getting warmer too. Watch our video on how we can adapt cities to a warming climate: kzread.info/dash/bejne/pH5ltpaco67HdKQ.html

    All weather is connected to our sun which seems to be left out of forecasting which is odd since it has cycles, magnetic electronic connections to us in patterns that show historically, maybe including the pole flips faster than we are taught…
