by Washington (AP) – We’ll see you later La Nina, we hardly knew her.
La Nina, the natural cooling flip page of the better known and warmer climate phenomenon of El Nino, went away after only three months. The La Nina, which appeared as a forecast in January, was weak, was weak, said the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration on Thursday.
The earth is now in a neutral surroundings in the south of the oscillation cycle by El Nino, which is generally the most benign of the three countries that help to influence hurricane training, droughts, floods and global temperatures. Noaa predicts the neutral attitude for most, if not all of 2025. This makes long -term weather forecasts a little more difficult because one of the main factors is not to urge one or the other direction.
La Nina is an irregular increase in unusually cold water in an important part of the central equatorial pacific, which changes the weather patterns worldwide. It usually brings more Atlantic hurricanes in summer, but it won’t be a factor this year. In the United States, La Ninas in the south and west cause drier weather and often make it in parts of Indonesia, North Australia and southern Africa.
Studies have shown that La -Nina’s tends to be more expensive than El Ninos and Neutral conditions.
Before this three -month La Nina, the world had an unusually long, three -year -old La Nina, which ended in 2023.
