“The El Niño building this winter is expected to be historically strong. And the rain forecast for California just jumped. In data released this week, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration significantly ramped up its precipitation forecast for the winter months in California. The agency now expects above-normal precipitation across much of the state in December, January and February — which tend to be the rainiest months. The odds for major rainfall are highest in the southern half of the state. Just last month, NOAA’s outlook only showed elevated rain chances for Southern California. The rest of the state, including the Bay Area, sat at equal chances. That changed dramatically in this week’s update. The shift puts NOAA in line with what the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts projected two weeks ago. Both agencies now point to a wetter-than-normal California winter, driven by an El Niño that NOAA gives a 69% chance of becoming the strongest in its modern record dating back to 1950. … ”
