Austin – for the first time this year, is expected to continue throughout the winter.
Previous expectations Nenia preferred in the fall and only continued at the beginning of the winter. This means that during the period from December-February, meteorological winter, ENSO Neutral was preferred.
But Thursday, Nawa Climate prediction center Her view is reviewed, now NIñA prefers meteorological meteorological with 54 %, and ENSO neutral at 43 % and NIñO is only 3 %.
ENSO means southern neenio oscillation and helps in describing the climate style affected by the eastern Pacific water.
When sea surface temperatures are 0.5 ° C lower than average or more cold and atmospheric interaction, we enter the La Niña stage of ENSO. On the contrary, the ninho is when the sea surface temperature is +0.5 ° C or more warm as long as the atmosphere interacts.
Not nine winter classes
The winter of La Niña is usually pushed in which the Pacific Airpiles are pushed to the far north, making the storm path away from the southern United States. This means more dry and warmer for the south and moisture in parts of the northwest of the Pacific and near the Great Lakes region, while it is cooler than usual in most of the northern states.
A weak and short period, not Ninia
All this meets to mean that in the second winter successive season, we expect a weak and short ninia. According to CPC again in 2024, there is the weakest Ninia “It is less likely to lead to traditional winter effects, although predictable signals still affect prediction instructions.”
In -depth: the last winter of the weak in Nenia in the center of Texas
Although the warmer and more dry during the winter season in Niña in central Texas, last winter (2024-2025) did not adhere to the typical temperature style.
Although December is warm, two months of coolness of January and February are more than compensation for the early winter heat. This means that we have finished winter a little more cold than the average.
The rain was lacking for nearly a month of rain in a missing period during a three -month period.
We also had winter weather, including a wide snow that brought an inch of accumulation to Austin.
Winter weather spread is not uncommon during the winter season in La Niña, partly due to the cooler air that usually creates a store in the northern part of the country. The colds in the Arctic have the possibility of bringing this cold air to Texas, even if the majority of winter has more moderate temperatures.
Last winter was also more frozen than usual as a result.
