El Nino Continues To Strengthen

By Rod Hill on 2009-11-03


Here is the latest news on what to expect this winter.  The El Nino continues to strengthen out over the equatorial waters of the Pacific.  The waters have been slowly warming each month since April.  There are currently hot spots of 2-3 degrees celsius above the seasonal norm.  Confidence is growing that the Northwest will see a mild and some what quiet winter.  This does not mean, that individiual storm episodes will be absent. 

Our weather looks wet and active this Thursday night and into much of next week.  The middle of November looks fairly dry.
