(Reuters) – La Niña is expected to continue during the northern hemisphere winter, with equal chances of La Niña and ENSO-neutral conditions during January to March of 2023, a U.S. government weather forecaster said on Thursday.
There is about a 71% chance of El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) neutral conditions during February to April of 2023, the forecaster said.
The La Niña weather pattern is characterized by unusually cold temperatures in the equatorial Pacific Ocean.
