| Abstract/Contents: | Reports that the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's (NOAA) Prediction Center is "calling for a mild winter [in 2006] for most of the [United States] with wetter-than-usual conditions in most of Florida...NOAA meteorologists [also] predict that it will be about 2 percent warmer overall than the 30-year average (1971-2000)." Explains that "meteorologists base [2006's] prediction on an El NiƱo system that formed in September [2006]...El NiƱo affects weather in the United States by influencing the position and strength of East Asian jet stream, which in El NiƱo years can act as buffer between air masses." States that "when El NiƱo is in effect, the jet stream is strengthened and can stay positioned about the northern part of the country or Canada. When that happens...the much milder Pacific cold fronts, not the Arctic cold fronts, influence the country's weather patterns. Cold conditions still can prevail, but probably not prolonged periods of bitter cold." |
