As of October 2020
Impacts of ENSO on Hurricane Season
La Niña—the cool phase of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation climate pattern—strengthened in the tropical Pacific in October 2020. Forecasters estimate a 95% chance La Niña will last through Northern Hemisphere winter, and they say the event is likely to be a relatively strong one. . La Niña winters tend to favor warm and dry conditions in the southern tier of the U.S. and snowier-than-average conditions across much of the northern U.S.
