A climatologist says there’s a high probability that the La Nina weather pattern will end this spring bringing much needed relief to the drought-stricken Central Plains.
Brian Fuchs is with the National Drought Mitigation Center. “Then we’re going to start developing into El Nino, which is saying the waters in the far western Pacific have went from cooler-than-normal stage and have transitioned to a warmer-than-normal stage.”
He tells Brownfield storm patterns have moved across the US differently in the third year of La Nina.
