La Nina May Bring Drier Conditions And Drought To Texas

Undated (WBAP/KLIF) – Federal weather officials say a La Nina weather condition has formed in the Pacific. La Nina is the natural cooling of parts of the equatorial Pacific Ocean, and it causes weather changes worldwide. It is the flip side of the better known El Nino. A La Nina could mean a drier U.S. south from coast to coast, including Texas, and potentially worsening the drought in the Southwest. It could also be bad news for California’s fire season next year. La Nina may also mean more Atlantic tropical storms in a year already seething with record setting activity. Hurricane Forecasters are now watching two Tropical Storms and four other systems in the Atlantic Ocean that could develop into problems.
