La Niña influences global weather with cooler ocean temperatures in the equatorial Pacific, having the most significant effects during Northern Hemisphere winters.
Last winter was the warmest on record in the Lower 48, primarily due to El Niño, contributing to a severe snow drought across the Northeast and Midwest.
La Niña is expected to develop soon with a 60% chance, and will likely persist throughout the winter, influencing temperatures and precipitation across the US.
The strength of La Niña will determine the consistency of its impact, with weaker events allowing for other weather factors to play more significant roles.
