El Nino effects on weather downright confusing to me
I don’t know about you, but the weather effects of what’s come to be known as “El Nino” are downright confusing to me. I just read that the current El Nino — blamed by many for the snowfall and serious winter throughout much of the U.S. this year — will probably continue through spring. That’s sort of good news and bad news, as far as I could tell — depending on where you live.But the worst part is, I can’t find anyone who can tell me in plain English: How will that effect spring where I live and where many others live, in various parts of the Northern Hemisphere and the U.S. in particular?
Depending on which obscure forecasting source you read (and I used Google to find several sites related to “El Nino effects in U.S.”), I honestly don’t know whether things will be hotter than normal here in southwest Missouri — or cooler than normal. I also can’t tell you, after reading several pages of websites, whether the spring will be wetter or drier than usual.
Groan. I guess I’ll do what I do every spring. I’ll stay flexible and be read for the worst — or for the best? I’ll keep those rain boots available, and break out the sandals just in case. I’ll probably keep the ceiling fans slowly running in the house, but also have the air conditioner ready to flip the switch if it gets too hot.
Gotta love weather forecasting, don’t you??
