    I've been hearing reports of a "Super" El Niño, and that it's officially here. But I'll be the first to admit, I had no idea what el niño and la niña even were. And in the course of my research, I have figured out so much, and it's pretty epic stuff. So let's figure out what the World has in store for it for the Summer of 2023, and going into 2024. What even makes it "Super?" Let's find out together!

    It's been weird in Colorado. We had the wettest June in decades. It is after the 4th of July, and still have not turned on the sprinkler system. Just saw on the news, the entire state is out of drought conditions, when the entire state was in severe drought just last year. The heavy rains started in May. Unfortunately, those rains did overwhelm our old sump pump and our basement was flooded. Note to self, get the sump pump replaced every 7-10 years, not 20 years, and keep an eye on it. Thanks for the info. Been a lot of good stuff. Thanks for breaking it down into easy to understand learning!

    Thanks for this video. It's already been hotter here than usual. We had no spring. We went from cold to hot within a week. Unfortunately I have end stage copd and can't breathe when the air is warm or hot, have to keep the AC pretty low. Do keep the heat low in winter too. My poor hubby wears a sweat shirt in the house year round just so I can breathe. We were going to put solar panels on years ago. The neighbors across the street had them and were getting rebates from the light company. However, we live in an area where we get alot of thunderstorms and the first hail storm we had after they put theirs on was a doozy. They did get the roof and panels replaced by their insurance company and then dropped. When they finally found new homeowners insurance it cost them 4 times what they were paying before. That changed our minds about solar panels. We just invested in a generator that would handle the things that have to be on in case of a power outage.

    I would really love if these videos focused just a little bit on the rest of the world too and what effect el niño has on the rest of the world. Don’t get me wrong this was a great video. Here in Sweden the summer has been increadibly hot so far and there has been very little rain, we’ve had two weeks now with around 25-27 degrees celsius and I live quite a bit up north by the coast where this sort of heat usually only occurs a couple times a year. I would really like a deep dive on the golf-stream for example and how it is affected by climate change and how the nordics could end up under ice again if it is disrupted.

    California actually gets more precipitation during an El Niño event. This sometimes impacts our snow pack due to the warmer temperatures and higher elevation Rain. But the jetstream dips further south during El Niño and causes pineapple express events bringing precipitation from the tropics. La Niña brings drought to California.

      note that Arizona is always excluded from discussion in these models, too.
      they never predict, or account for, the monsoon we get. and even meteorologists in Arizona categorize the monsoon incorrectly, officially recognizing it as a change in humidity. but... it's a monsoon, which is fundamentally a reversal in wind direction.
      current models have the heat dome over Texas moving straight northward over the course of July. this almost never actually happens, though, because the monsoon starts around July 3rd or 4th, and pulls the air from Texas and New Mexico over Arizona. and one of the driving forces behind this is the increase in water temps in the Gulf of Mexico driving pressure changes which push humid air outward. which means northern Mexico and the Southwest gets a reversal of wind direction. this is also what usually pushes hurricanes that enter the Gulf north into Alabama, Louisiana, etc. it's a generalized outward push from the approximate center of the Gulf.
      astoundingly, it happens every year, but weather models never predict it, and meteorologists are always surprised by it. and worse, absolutely everything about an El Nino typically drives this more strongly than during other years, but yet again, nobody's predicting or expecting it to happen at all this year, even though it's very likely to start in the next week.
      so don't be too hard on the content of this video. the industry as a whole is incompetent when it comes to predicting the weather in our part of the world.

    The weather is definitely different this year. Here in Montana, we have had at least 10-15x the normal rain in the last two months. Usually we will get about an inch or two. Each rain storm we have had, has been 2-3 inches each storm with flooding events being very frequent. It has also been a lot cooler this year. Normally it's in the high 80's, and it has barely made it past 80 so far. We are the ones that typically get fires this time of year, but they are happening to our neighbors to the north this year. I just hope it isn't like last summer, where it was hovering around 100 for over a month straight(almost 2). That was a brutal summer.

I live in Colorado and we are getting torrential amounts of constant rain for months now. I have never seen anything like this in my 40yrs in Colorado. It has been going on for months and keeps happening. We are not getting warm like usual either, and I personally feel so skunky and awful not having sun and warmth like we normally get as a boost in summer in Colorado. At minimum we should be having more sun and not constant cloud haze.
      In our mainstream media (local and national) about six months ago they admitted that they are climate engineering to try to make more rain in Colorado so that it would end the drought. All winter they would spray the clouds (it was obvious), then there would be haze, then it would snow on Weds every week for weeks on end. Then in the spring every day that they sprayed the rain would come...when they weren't spraying early in the morning no rain or clouds would come (but it wasn't very often they weren't spraying). I used to think that was a conspiracy theory, but now that I have seen it with my own eyes repeatedly and the media is admitting to it I am very dubious about the extent of the damage being caused to us and the environment from the heavy metals being sprayed all the time (just google, climate engineering drought in Colorado).

    We normally keep a close eye on it here in Australia, the Pacific water is heating up a lot but the Indian Ocean Dipole is still in a neutral phase currently. If that were to remain neutral it can temper the impact of an El Nino. The presence of strong rainfall and cyclones a possible release valve for some additional heat exiting the system. During the most extreme El Nino events we usually have weak monsoon season and low cyclone activity.

It increases wind shear in the Atlantic and if we get really lucky, it can increase winds across the Sahara desert in Africa. This helps because believe it or not, dust from the Sahara can be blown across the Atlantic and affect hurricane development by drying them out. We had one busy year downgraded because of the relentless sandstorms drying the air in the Atlantic.

    Decreases hurricanes, but increases tornadoes. For the states, it increase precipitation which impacts heat for the west and south. This means that less ice falls in west, which equals to less running water to drink, shower, and irrigation for people in California for example. South like Texas experiences more rain with extreme precipitation, which equals to more tropical and severe storms. At least thats what I understand

      Except that got broken this year with the unprecedented snows in the higher elevations in California. As for Texas (where I live), tornados are bad this year (Perryton and Matador got hit in the last 2 weeks) and the panhandle has been drown in rain to the point that there have been 4k head of cattle lost and the towns in and around the Amarillo area have been flooded. Lake Meredith has refilled after the drought had the marina sitting on the dry lakebed. But they're forecasting less hurricanes due to the wind sheer. This is good and I'm keeping an eye on the Gulf (I live 15 miles inland from Galveston) because the water is above normal for the year already and we're not in the hottest part of the year yet (late July-Labor day). The wind sheer is going to be necessary to keep things from getting horrible.

By doing this, I'm not trying to compete with the sun on cooling the house down (outside temp drops 10 -20 degrees overnight).

So far this winter has not been that way as we have had quite normal rainfall and cold conditions. We will have to see how the rest of winter pans out. We have had very heavy rainfall through the arid interior in the last two weeks which is very unusual and the tropical north that is in its dry season phase is wetter than usual as well and quite a bit cooler.

    I live in Santa Cruz County, California. History says that strong El Niños usually have substantial impacts on us. The annual rainfall typically increases quite a bit (though I have a vague recollection of a very dry year during an El Niño season); but more critically for us, we get devastating atmospheric river events that cause mudslide mayhem. Half the people that died in the Storm of '82 (Jan 2-4, 1982) died in one enormous mudslide. I'll have to look at more detailed calendars of specific events vis-à-vis the oscillation, because it just occurred to me there may be a detail we have been missing. The current rain season for us had a series of AV events, including a couple of whoppers coinciding with winter tides and extreme storm surges. So now I have a working hypothesis that the worst downpours may be a symptom of the commencement of El Niño and possibly in reflection of the rapidity of the transition into El Niño, which has been extraordinary this year, rather than the intensity or duration. Instead, the intensity and duration of the full-on El Niño season determine total precipitation, number of wet days, and hydrology. Just a hypothesis. I can already feel I'm going to obsess over it, though. 🤓

    Build a small ice shelter made of wood that would fit the number of people in your home comfortable lying down or siting, insulate walls with reflective aluminum sheets and insulating foam in 2 layers, buy a cheap freezer for 300 dollars and fill the sides with ice mixed with salt. There should be a covered exhaust at the top and 2 passages at the bottom where the air comes in (that can be sealed if needed. Ice house should be elevated for like 1 feet off the ground in case there is flooding in your area.

    My little Washington town usually gets summer heat that can rival Death Valley, but so far we've had record cold temperatures for this time of year. Unlike last year, where all June we were blasting through record highs. Occasionally it breaks the 60-70°f streaks to have a day of 90+°. But for the most part it's been down right cold. The bright side is our forest fires are down considerably... But we're going to be super hard hit by the el nino heat lol (which according to AccuWeather officially kicks in today). I really need to get around to plugging in my second air-conditioner. Thank heavens we have the cheapest electricity in the US. Lighting is our only enemy on that front.

Last year in southern California, I noticed a skyrocket in the price of electricity. This summer I though I would try, and make it only running the one ac.This is the first day I've used the one ac. It's 100 today, and at 5 I couldn't take the heat anymore. Tomorrow is supposed to be 107 as is sat. and sun. I cannot imagine next year being worse. I will say this.

      The West Coast of South America (Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, Chile) generally get floods. South East Asia gets drought and a weak monsoon, as does Australia. East Africa also tends to get drought, but that is also affected by conditions in the Indian Ocean. The Pacific Northwest is usually drier and warmer. California can get big storms, with potential for flooding. The Southern US is generally cooler and wetter. Not so sure about US East Coast or Europe. If the Gulf Stream is also warmer than average that will affect both.

    This is a pretty good analysis for a newbie. Thanks! We in CA do TEND to get rainier than average winters. I say tend to. 2015-6 was an exception. Actually '18-'19 was much rainier than that Super ENSO in '15-16. Why? Well, we think it was b/c of a blob of warmer than average water in the central pacific. That tends to correlate with below average precipitation and droughts for us. High pressure systems build easier in those conditions. But I'm not an expert. Check out other teleconnections like the MJO (Madden-Julien Oscillation), PDO, NAO for starters.

I'm glad to see you are covering this, as despite the alarming evidence, the MSM don't seem to be covering this much. Here in the UK, some of the seas around the UK have been 5 to 6 degrees warmer than is normally expected. Yet our meteorologists don't even give this a mention on weather reports. While we cannot easily predict what the effects will be, it would be very wise to prepare for possible extreme weather events. Some of the things you mentioned would be best practice anyway in a normal year. Stay safe and stay positive.
