Autumn 2023’s weather forecast is like getting a special message from a friend who knows what the sky will do next.
El Nino, the weather friend, has been sending messages all year. It's like when you're playing with blocks and you push one side, it makes everything on that side move. In this case, El Nino pushes warm water across the ocean, which changes how the wind moves in the sky.
Weather is like a game of tag
Sometimes, the weather feels like someone is chasing you, storms are like the chasers, and sunshine is the person you want to be. In Autumn 2023, El Nino is helping some storms run faster and making others take a break.
The forecast is your map
Think of the forecast as a map that tells you where the storms will go and when the sun will come out. It helps grown-ups know if they need an umbrella or if it's time to play outside. This special update means El Nino has given more clues, so the map gets even better, like getting extra pieces in your puzzle game!
