As you may have heard, El Niño is coming . . . El Niño episodes are associated with exceptionally stormy winter and increased precipitation across California and the southern United States along with less stormy conditions across the northern part of the country. What does that actually mean?

During an El Nino Event such as predicted for The Winter of 2009-10, the Easter Pacific Sea Surface temperatures are deeper and warmer than during non El Nino winters. The warmer water off the west coast of the Americas tends to draw the Northern Jet Stream out the Pacific Northwest down across Central and Southern California increasing the potential for increased storm strengths and participation. So get out there this winter and experience the best of what Cali has to offer because one thing’s for sure: El Niño is coming!
