El Nino

The weather guys keep talking about El Nino I got curious and did some search El Nino is a Spanish expression means little boy. It has nothing to do with little boy but lots to do with the weather. Not much is written about why it happens but at odd times the temperature rises in sea surfaces and this causes heavy rain in some areas and draught in others. There is no system in this madness. The year 2023 will experience this and we should all be prepared for abnormal happenings when it comes to floods and draught. For more on this you can visit the link

I remember them making a big deal about El Niño about a decade ago, I think. I’m so used to hearing about it these days although I guess we shouldn’t ever get used to it.

El Niño may cause several weather changes. Some places will suffer droughts and other flooding. The recent updates from the World Meteorological Organization report that there will be increased rainfall in parts of South America, the southern United States, the Horn of Africa and central Asia. In contrast, El Niño can also cause severe droughts over Australia, Indonesia, and parts of southern Asia.

@allknowing I fear nothing at all, we still do not know if we will be affected or not here.

It stands for an abnormal weather to me. We had the highest May this year and now it is not so hot because of recent rains. But it may be very hot in this summer.

As I said there is no system. Some will have draught and some floods

Isn't this the same with the severe storms in monsoons in India, the cause matches the same with the El Nino.

When El Nino appears then it can either be draught or heavy rain
