Strong La Niña expected to bring above-average temps to Arizona

More from this show

A La Niña is the cool phase of a Pacific Ocean natural, recurring climate cycle known as the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO). Much of the country is expected to see above average temperatures from October to December. However, areas of the Southwest, including parts of Arizona, are regions most likely to experience above-average temperatures during this period. Arizona could also see less precipitation this winter.

 Randy Cerveny, Climatologist at Arizona State University joined “Arizona Horizon” to discuss more about this year’s La Niña period.
