At 1:26 you see there was an El Niño in December 2015. That was a notoriously warm Christmas for New England, it was about 65 degrees fahrenheit and sunny on Chistmas Eve, and it was 52 degrees fahrenheit on Christmas Day. The previous winter was the polar opposite, when Boston got slammed by a few meters of snow.

As a person who live in SEA region, El Niño already occurred last year but now we are experiencing La Niña frequent storm and high wind 50+Km/h (30+mph)
With it being a crazy election year here in the US, not as much coverage of the storms in your region has filtered through. But from what I’ve seen, you all have been getting some intense storms. I hope this La Niña doesn’t go long like the last one, for everyone’s sake. Hope your area and people are recovering well from these latest and that everyone stays prepared. 🍀💜
I live in Ecuador..we are currently experiencing the biggest drought in 61 yrs! All year..Virtually no rain or rainy season..We are having blackouts again like back in June
The weather in South Africa is really unpredictable already. We went from 35°C heatwaves to deadly snow in one week. The snow actually killed people and thousands of people were stuck for 40 hours on the roads, completely trapped by snow. Its spring. In South Africa.
Here in Colombia experts are already saying that La Niña is going to be very moderate, meaning that we are not going to recuperate from the drought we are living in the capital
October and November will be good rain months so try to save water, also keep bottled water the shelf. We will recover from the drought but then it will come again and our government would have taken no measurements. Because they only care when there is water shortage not when there isn’t. So always keep a future perspective, and prevent the worst outcomes.
Currently here in the Philippines, we are experiencing the opposite. It's been raining 10-12 hours a day straight this week and we're also experiencing multiple typhoon and tropical cyclones. Though some part here are experiencing the opposite. Where not even a cloud is visible. Causing the rice fields to dry up.
We only have 1 to 3 hours of electricity in my country because of the drought too. And the govt has been reluctant on investing in alternative energy sources. El Nino has really f'kd us this time
@@ladybug3380 you can't plan ahead when >60% of the energy in a country is generated by hydroelectric dams. It takes years to shift to a new energy source
The last la niña i was in college and lived near a mini forest which got ABSOLUTELY DESTROYED during the storm. Trees toppled everywhere, could no long walk or ride bike through, saw lightning striking off the coast for the entire night. Crazy awesome.
Amazing summary of a very complex subject, Sir. I live on the Big Island of Hawaii and will attest to the realness of atmospheric rivers. Our large mountains catch passing moisture like a giant sail and it all pours down, sometimes for days in a row. Seeing the world maps portrayed in your video along with narration has been very enlightening.
We experienced the El Niño atmospheric rivers here in Hawaii, before they slammed the U.S. west coast, but we have all the zones here too, on the major four islands, from sea level to 10,000 ft and wet and dry sides. You can literally pick a location on the island, that has your preferred temperature range and precipitation, and live there.
With La Nina, tens possibly hundreds of cubic kilometres of fresh water fall on the Australian continent in otherwise desert country. Much of this soaks deep into underground acquifers. The phenomena can lower global sealevels by measurable amounts.
I genuinely think Alex would be a worthy torch bearer to take over the role David Attenborough has performed, inspiring the next generations about nature and the universe!
Living in eastern Oregon we see the strong impact of both systems, the ebb and flow of temperature and moisture. Farmers growing wheat are impacted by both.
In Australia, the "Black Summer" fires of 2020-2021 were the result of a six year long el nino event. They were ended by flooding rain. Since then, in my region, we've received consistently good rain. The Bureau of Meteorology warned of a return of el nino in 2024. It hasn't happened. We've continued having good rain. Whereas the SOI is important in determining el nino/la nina events, the Indian Ocean Dipole is also important, yet it's hardly ever mentioned.
When the IOD flipped in I think early 2021, the BOM said "the drought will break in south east Victoria in 2 weeks " they were spot on, its been consistently wet since, no bushfires of note here since😊
@@michaelstockley7897 Yes, it was right, confirming the Indian Ocean Dipole is important. And not just for Western Australia. However, I'm talking about 2024, here in the East, where we were told it'd be an el nino. We've had a good amount of rain. A little too much, on occasion, but I haven't seen it greener here.
We were seeing a trend of an El Nino earlier this year, but now its heading La Nina. ENSO is important during summer, IOD is a winter thing. ENSO eases of during winter months. Forecasters cant predict the future, they cant guarantee the future, all they do is look at the current data and run it through computer models. Weather and climate changes fast. Which is why the BoM never guarantees an El nino summer or La nina summer, they just say the probability of El Nino. but the media spins it so everyone thinks the Bom is saying it is El Nino.
@@peepeetrain8755 listening to a BOM person on ABC Radio, back in July, I think it was, the message the BOM was giving was: "Yes, it's wet, but the trend is still el niño. About a month later, they finally conceded they got it wrong. It's difficult to predict the weather, as you say, but to continue making obviously incorrect predictions in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary doesn't do your reputation any good.
Good point. And the latitude of the High pressure systems coming across from the west is also very important for fire weather in the south east of the continent. The South-West quadrant of a high pressure system ("anti-cyclone" where cyclone is a synonym for clockwise) causes wind from the north west. When they are in the Tasman sea, that means winds from Australias hot dry centre. When we've had a long drought, and vegetation is drying out, those north westerlies can be extremely low humidity, very hot, and very strong, and tat is what really pushes fire into high intensity (as long as there is plenty of fuel of course). Sometimes the high pressures systems just get stuck in the Tasman sea and can cause those north-westerlies to blow for many days with out a break. The weather bureau in Aus predicted drought and a bad fire season in 23/24 ( If I recall correctly) but it did not happen, partly because - as you said - the Indian Ocean dipole was sending moisture our way, and also, the high pressure systems were so far south that they were not producing north-westerly winds over the south-east of the continent.
These terms and narrative descriptions remind me of my college years when I took a earth science class. The good thing is that living in California has always been a sunny experience, unlike Florida where it's also sunny but uncomfortably humid. I guess we're going to experience a longer summer here in California. I say bring it on!
13:21 This graph is interesting to me because during the last strong la nina event, the UK experienced what we called The Big Freeze in the winters of 2009 and 2010. Where we saw lower average temps after a very wet autumn in 2009 and almost artic conditions throughout the country. If the next la nina event is going to be a strong one, that could possibly result in another harsh winter after the very warm dry summers we've experienced during 2022 and 23.
El Niño is hell in South America, heavy droughts for a population used to live in a hot, but rainy place. But La Niña is usually good for agriculture here, it's already raining a lot.
I live around the Twin cities of Minnesota and can confirm that it has been raining literally Every other day throughout the whole Summer, we’ve had at least 5 Tornado warnings, and Two Severe storms in which I haven’t seen this bad for years, Our lakes are higher then I’ve seen them and Moist as frick.. Minnesota is definitely known for its Severe Winters, and humid Summers in which I would say the climate is temperate with drastic Temperature swings between all Four Seasons…. Recently the El Niño has affected us in 2023 for Sure giving us a Drought throughout the summer where temperatures up here are higher then even some Southern US cities, and last Winter was the mildest yet…. THIS YEAR THO…. Boy oh Boy has it had the opposite effect, Based on the farmer’s predictions too, this Winter for us is supposed to be Colder and more Severe so at least it’ll actually FEEL like Christmas again OWO
Considering we've had years of severe drought, having frequent rain this summer has been fantastic. I didn't think there were more than normal severe storms. It was mostly gentle rains.
My part of West Virginia is typically a humid sun-tropical climate which experiences hot and wet summers. This was the driest and hottest summer I have ever seen here.
I dont typically keep an eye on my barometer but im going to now. I should put it outside! It measures not only barometer but also humidity and temp. It derserves to be outdoors to give me an accurate read, instead of decor in my living room lol its an old instrument but i think it remains consistent
Same as now. We make no difference on the climate. The bad stuff is trash in the sea and stuff like that - mostly coming from a few rivers in Asia and Africa.
That “c” word has a wrong definition and cause. Because they how are in control are lying about what is happening. The magnetic poles are weak and on the move. That’s the cause of “c”
It reminds me of that youtuber challenge where saying a trigger word will cause problems in the game they're playing 😂 "This stream is starting to drag on." *Spawning Dragons.* "What? NO!"
It feels weird learning about this. I live in Shanghai, sitting in a Taifun right now… Weather is already extreme and unpredictable, nobody would be surprised 😂😂
Australia, the one place that upon creating it God said, "fuck this place in particular" and thus he crafted a place where if the wildlife doesn't eat you, maim you, or inject venom into you, the weather will take care of the job. 😂 But the worst thing of all is those drop bears, tourists are apparently especially vulnerable to their vicious attacks, and I'll be bringing my armoured umbrella if I get the chance to visit to protect myself In all seriousness stay safe from whatever La Niña brings your way, and fingers crossed it's mild this time around
@@Spacemonkeymojo oh don't worry I haven't, but as I'm from England it'd be a case of the pot calling the kettle black bottomed, seeing as our lot are as thick as pig s**t in a heatwave 😂
Southern finland got first snow couple days ago, quite later from usual, it has been very warm fall this year, I wonder if next year will be rainy and cold again.
El Niño means Little Boy in Spanish. South American fishermen first noticed periods of unusually warm water in the Pacific Ocean in the 1600s. The full name they used was El Niño de Navidad, because El Niño typically peaks around December.
Those are covered under the Milankovich Cycles. Altho not so much as gravitational directly per se, as they're more how factors like the planet's tilt, rotational precession, direction of tilt relative to sun, orbital circularity and orbital precession affects how much solar radiation Earth gets and how they're distributed across the planet. Direct gravitational influences are the tidal forces caused by the moon and the sun. The other planets' gravitational influences are many orders of magnitude weaker than the influences of the sun and the moon, and thus are considered negligible in effect. Their influences are drowned out by the dominant effect of the sun (by reason of the sun's overwhelming mass compared to the planets) and moon (by reason of the moon's close proximity to Earth and it's large relative size to Earth) in the tidal dynamics.
Doesn’t change anything anywhere. Half the people in the comments section saying it’s been colder than normal half saying it’s been hotter than normal so are we having an el Nina or a la nino?
@@sPACEmANtYLERSPACE doesn’t * and yes it does go do a bit of research on it all i’m not denying global warming i’m just stating a fact that is we have always had these weather patterns and extreme weather in history has hit harder than it has done recently for example the worst weather events recorded in the UK have all been more than 30 years ago other than the hottest temperature recorded which was in 2022 within 30 miles of where i live
Will this mean more rain for the Southern parts of Africa? The Zambezi catchment area really need rain to fill lake Kariba again. The lake are at a very low level. So much so that Zambia and Zimbabwe experience experience power cuts of between 8 and 18 hours daily due to lack of hydro power generation.
I do remember in Bamberg,Germany,summer 2001,that while most days were very warm,hitting mid 80's to 90's,there was a day that suddenly cooled & there was light snow!
It has been 10-15 deg (F) below normal all summer in Indiana... a very nice reprieve, although unseasonably dry. I didn't realize La Nina would follow months behind instead of years (the opposite end of the cycle).
Where I live in the Midwest too. We had a record cold July. 80 degree days 60 degree nights instead of high 90s in the day and high 80s at night. The US Midwest is short any where from 500 -1000 HDD this year. Corn yields may be low due to too low heating degree days.
as a Texan we have began seeing it aswell! recently we have had little to no rain, pretty much since beryl and pretty much no temperature change in a while (unless its a cold front maybe) since summer. not very humid but still pretty warm
Right now in Eastern Spain (Valencia) 31st of October 2024, there´s been a lot of rain in the coastal areas that has destroyed many towns surrounding the main dry rivers, 161 deaths as for now. You usually think this type of phenomemon won´t affect you until it does, be safe out there and care for your loved ones.
From 13:47 up to 14:24 I was expecting him to say something about South America. It was disapointing lol. Even tho South América is among the most affected regions by this phenomenom
An important factor that every one always leaves out when talking about stuff like this, is… the sun! Not only is the sun at the peak of one of its most active sun spot cycles, but the Earth’s magnetic field is very low and weakening (as we are in the beginning stages of a Pole Shift). And another thing that will be even more devastating, is the potential collapsing of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation. This worries me more than either El Niño or La Niña!
good for you, but stop acting like scientific bodies and climatologists don't factor any of this in - this video already did that for global climate change (which already figures those things into its models). So, no - "everyone" doesn't "always" leave out the sun and other factors. Whoever you feel most comfortable listening to is likely lying to you.

As a person who live in SEA region, El Niño already occurred last year but now we are experiencing La Niña frequent storm and high wind 50+Km/h (30+mph)
Same here in Alaska. High winds and rainstorms.
The most recent El Niño was from about June 2023 to about May 2024.
atleast it's not going to be scorching
With it being a crazy election year here in the US, not as much coverage of the storms in your region has filtered through. But from what I’ve seen, you all have been getting some intense storms. I hope this La Niña doesn’t go long like the last one, for everyone’s sake.
Hope your area and people are recovering well from these latest and that everyone stays prepared. 🍀💜

I live in Ecuador..we are currently experiencing the biggest drought in 61 yrs! All year..Virtually no rain or rainy season..We are having blackouts again like back in June
if it gets called La Nina this year. It will be the 4th consecutive La Nina summer. the drought doesnt seem to get better anytime soon unfortunately.
@@peepeetrain8755 We just finally had some rain but still massive Blackouts due to no water in the reservoirs and Ecuador runs on Hydro Power
@@peepeetrain8755 Still no rain .. 10 hr blackouts daily and no end i sight.. it is getting to be critical mass

The weather in South Africa is really unpredictable already. We went from 35°C heatwaves to deadly snow in one week. The snow actually killed people and thousands of people were stuck for 40 hours on the roads, completely trapped by snow. Its spring. In South Africa.
Here in Colombia experts are already saying that La Niña is going to be very moderate, meaning that we are not going to recuperate from the drought we are living in the capital
O ,espero que ojala les llegue un poco de lluvia para que si puedan recuperarse
October and November will be good rain months so try to save water, also keep bottled water the shelf. We will recover from the drought but then it will come again and our government would have taken no measurements. Because they only care when there is water shortage not when there isn’t. So always keep a future perspective, and prevent the worst outcomes.
It will also be moderate since we are in the tropical of ecuador
@@healthybloomingbeauty PERMACULTURE
Right now I am In Ecuador, and is very dry. No rains for many weeks. The gov actually started energy cuts, blackouts, because rivers are dry.
Currently here in the Philippines, we are experiencing the opposite. It's been raining 10-12 hours a day straight this week and we're also experiencing multiple typhoon and tropical cyclones. Though some part here are experiencing the opposite. Where not even a cloud is visible. Causing the rice fields to dry up.
怎么办 海南摩羯刚过一片废墟
We only have 1 to 3 hours of electricity in my country because of the drought too. And the govt has been reluctant on investing in alternative energy sources. El Nino has really f'kd us this time
Shouldn’t they have planned ahead?
@@ladybug3380 you can't plan ahead when >60% of the energy in a country is generated by hydroelectric dams. It takes years to shift to a new energy source
For my area, La Nina usually means more, and more severe, tornadoes. So, that'll be fun.

Amazing summary of a very complex subject, Sir. I live on the Big Island of Hawaii and will attest to the realness of atmospheric rivers. Our large mountains catch passing moisture like a giant sail and it all pours down, sometimes for days in a row. Seeing the world maps portrayed in your video along with narration has been very enlightening.
We experienced the El Niño atmospheric rivers here in Hawaii, before they slammed the U.S. west coast, but we have all the zones here too, on the major four islands, from sea level to 10,000 ft and wet and dry sides. You can literally pick a location on the island, that has your preferred temperature range and precipitation, and live there.
With La Nina, tens possibly hundreds of cubic kilometres of fresh water fall on the Australian continent in otherwise desert country. Much of this soaks deep into underground acquifers. The phenomena can lower global sealevels by measurable amounts.
Wich should balance the rising sea levels frommelting glaciers
@@jorr1334 Ha ha ha - "should" because we would like it to be so....?
But it isn't - the next El Nino reverse it.
@@volkerengels5298that carries the sugges yhat rising sea levels are an artifact thereof
I doubt the deserts will absorb it but most will run of and cause huge flooding problems
Hahahahahaha you’re high
So with La Niña we in Sweden can expect heavy snow fall and extreme low temperatures as usual, and worse weather for the winter I guess...
Japp

The world is indeed ever changing. Good video man. Definitely gonna go through my climatology university notes you raised my passion for it once again
Yeah, I'm glad the understanding that there's long term cycles of the Earth and Sun that we can't change but invariably change us is spreading.

Seems earth doesn’t need us. It’s perfectly capable off fing itself up.
Living in eastern Oregon we see the strong impact of both systems, the ebb and flow of temperature and moisture. Farmers growing wheat are impacted by both.
In Australia, the "Black Summer" fires of 2020-2021 were the result of a six year long el nino event. They were ended by flooding rain. Since then, in my region, we've received consistently good rain. The Bureau of Meteorology warned of a return of el nino in 2024. It hasn't happened. We've continued having good rain. Whereas the SOI is important in determining el nino/la nina events, the Indian Ocean Dipole is also important, yet it's hardly ever mentioned.
When the IOD flipped in I think early 2021, the BOM said "the drought will break in south east Victoria in 2 weeks " they were spot on, its been consistently wet since, no bushfires of note here since😊
@@michaelstockley7897 Yes, it was right, confirming the Indian Ocean Dipole is important. And not just for Western Australia. However, I'm talking about 2024, here in the East, where we were told it'd be an el nino. We've had a good amount of rain. A little too much, on occasion, but I haven't seen it greener here.
We were seeing a trend of an El Nino earlier this year, but now its heading La Nina.
ENSO is important during summer, IOD is a winter thing. ENSO eases of during winter months.
Forecasters cant predict the future, they cant guarantee the future, all they do is look at the current data and run it through computer models. Weather and climate changes fast. Which is why the BoM never guarantees an El nino summer or La nina summer, they just say the probability of El Nino. but the media spins it so everyone thinks the Bom is saying it is El Nino.
@@peepeetrain8755 listening to a BOM person on ABC Radio, back in July, I think it was, the message the BOM was giving was: "Yes, it's wet, but the trend is still el niño.
About a month later, they finally conceded they got it wrong.
It's difficult to predict the weather, as you say, but to continue making obviously incorrect predictions in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary doesn't do your reputation any good.
Good point. And the latitude of the High pressure systems coming across from the west is also very important for fire weather in the south east of the continent. The South-West quadrant of a high pressure system ("anti-cyclone" where cyclone is a synonym for clockwise) causes wind from the north west. When they are in the Tasman sea, that means winds from Australias hot dry centre. When we've had a long drought, and vegetation is drying out, those north westerlies can be extremely low humidity, very hot, and very strong, and tat is what really pushes fire into high intensity (as long as there is plenty of fuel of course). Sometimes the high pressures systems just get stuck in the Tasman sea and can cause those north-westerlies to blow for many days with out a break.
The weather bureau in Aus predicted drought and a bad fire season in 23/24 ( If I recall correctly) but it did not happen, partly because - as you said - the Indian Ocean dipole was sending moisture our way, and also, the high pressure systems were so far south that they were not producing north-westerly winds over the south-east of the continent.
These terms and narrative descriptions remind me of my college years when I took a earth science class. The good thing is that living in California has always been a sunny experience, unlike Florida where it's also sunny but uncomfortably humid. I guess we're going to experience a longer summer here in California. I say bring it on!
I live in eastern Pennsylvania. It has not rained here since before June. There's been rare brief thunder storms, but not proper rain.
I live in Western NJ. Fair amount of rain. Didn't water lawn all summer.
Central PA we've had the a rather usual rain pattern but most are just squirts then a few are unusually large downpours.
I live 148 miles away, in Long Island, and we had plenty rain since June, but must check rainfall amounts, Later my friend
As a Canadian in the Prairies, seeing COLDER made my bones ache 🥲
Not that long ago there would have been a mile of ice on top of you. The 'normal' for most of the last 2.6 million years we call Ice Age
I lived in the prairies... It used to be colder and that's okay. I would trade it for the high temperatures of now...
13:21 This graph is interesting to me because during the last strong la nina event, the UK experienced what we called The Big Freeze in the winters of 2009 and 2010. Where we saw lower average temps after a very wet autumn in 2009 and almost artic conditions throughout the country. If the next la nina event is going to be a strong one, that could possibly result in another harsh winter after the very warm dry summers we've experienced during 2022 and 23.
It’s spring in South Africa, and we are experiencing heavy snowfall in some parts of the country.
This is due to an unusual cut-off low pressure system, over KZN, something that usually only happens over the WC.
Trade winds = trade routes....learned something. Thanks!
Just don’t ask why the horse latitudes are called that.
Makes sense. Old ships used wind power to move.
Nope, that is actually wrong. Trade comes from Old Norse, and it means Path. Trade Winds literally means Path of (Runnning) Winds.
El Niño is hell in South America, heavy droughts for a population used to live in a hot, but rainy place. But La Niña is usually good for agriculture here, it's already raining a lot.
I live around the Twin cities of Minnesota and can confirm that it has been raining literally Every other day throughout the whole Summer, we’ve had at least 5 Tornado warnings, and Two Severe storms in which I haven’t seen this bad for years, Our lakes are higher then I’ve seen them and Moist as frick..
Minnesota is definitely known for its Severe Winters, and humid Summers in which I would say the climate is temperate with drastic Temperature swings between all Four Seasons…. Recently the El Niño has affected us in 2023 for Sure giving us a Drought throughout the summer where temperatures up here are higher then even some Southern US cities, and last Winter was the mildest yet…. THIS YEAR THO…. Boy oh Boy has it had the opposite effect, Based on the farmer’s predictions too, this Winter for us is supposed to be Colder and more Severe so at least it’ll actually FEEL like Christmas again OWO
I hope everything goes well for you and your friends and family in the end.. stay safe
Considering we've had years of severe drought, having frequent rain this summer has been fantastic. I didn't think there were more than normal severe storms. It was mostly gentle rains.
@@Gaeilge05 Tyyyy

My part of West Virginia is typically a humid sun-tropical climate which experiences hot and wet summers. This was the driest and hottest summer I have ever seen here.
so then, probably your next summer with be very hot and very wet indeed.
I had a shift in air pressure this morning, definitely moisture involved...
Oh yes, big one
I dont typically keep an eye on my barometer but im going to now. I should put it outside! It measures not only barometer but also humidity and temp. It derserves to be outdoors to give me an accurate read, instead of decor in my living room lol its an old instrument but i think it remains consistent
Can you do a video about the earth cycles before human influence? I'm very curious to learn more about this subject.
Same as now. We make no difference on the climate. The bad stuff is trash in the sea and stuff like that - mostly coming from a few rivers in Asia and Africa.

El Niño means Little Boy in Spanish. South American fishermen first noticed periods of unusually warm water in the Pacific Ocean in the 1600s. The full name they used was El Niño de Navidad, because El Niño typically peaks around December.
Generally it just means "the child". If no particular child is the subject, the male conjugation is the general term. So it means "the child".
@@bigguy7353Guess they were assuming it’s directly boy since now there’s a girl ! 🫠
3:07 When we reach 4°c clouds will not be able to form in some regions leading to an *additional* 8°c of warming.
In the Australian weather records, up till recently we had 7 years of El Niño causing drought, and 1 year of La Niña causing floods.
Tonga eruption in January 21 extended the last la Nina, l think.
Global warming means more rain 🌧️ for Australia 🎉🎉

Incredible how we can see La Niña taking place already…. Insane work
There’s one missing element to El Niño and Walker Circulation theory…planetary, solar and lunar gravitational influence
planetary, solar and lunar? methinx that's three!
Those are covered under the Milankovich Cycles. Altho not so much as gravitational directly per se, as they're more how factors like the planet's tilt, rotational precession, direction of tilt relative to sun, orbital circularity and orbital precession affects how much solar radiation Earth gets and how they're distributed across the planet.
Direct gravitational influences are the tidal forces caused by the moon and the sun.
The other planets' gravitational influences are many orders of magnitude weaker than the influences of the sun and the moon, and thus are considered negligible in effect. Their influences are drowned out by the dominant effect of the sun (by reason of the sun's overwhelming mass compared to the planets) and moon (by reason of the moon's close proximity to Earth and it's large relative size to Earth) in the tidal dynamics.
Don't forget geothermal. Air temperature influence only penetrates a few mm deep into the ocean. Water has a very high heat capacity.
*Meh, ain't gonna change anything here in Arizona. Always gonna be dry and hot af*

Solar maximum is also predicted in 2025
I do remember in Bamberg,Germany,summer 2001,that while most days were very warm,hitting mid 80's to 90's,there was a day that suddenly cooled & there was light snow!
It has been 10-15 deg (F) below normal all summer in Indiana... a very nice reprieve, although unseasonably dry. I didn't realize La Nina would follow months behind instead of years (the opposite end of the cycle).
Where I live in the Midwest too. We had a record cold July. 80 degree days 60 degree nights instead of high 90s in the day and high 80s at night. The US Midwest is short any where from 500 -1000 HDD this year. Corn yields may be low due to too low heating degree days.

You did not mention the effects of La Niña in South America
South America succesfully ignored by another Science Channel.
From 13:47 up to 14:24 I was expecting him to say something about South America. It was disapointing lol.
Even tho South América is among the most affected regions by this phenomenom
Agree. South America, Central America, and Mexico were ignored. Rather large oversights.
okay meteorology seems like a pretty fucken cool field of study
An important factor that every one always leaves out when talking about stuff like this, is… the sun! Not only is the sun at the peak of one of its most active sun spot cycles, but the Earth’s magnetic field is very low and weakening (as we are in the beginning stages of a Pole Shift). And another thing that will be even more devastating, is the potential collapsing of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation. This worries me more than either El Niño or La Niña!
good for you, but stop acting like scientific bodies and climatologists don't factor any of this in - this video already did that for global climate change (which already figures those things into its models). So, no - "everyone" doesn't "always" leave out the sun and other factors. Whoever you feel most comfortable listening to is likely lying to you.
Our temperature records only go back a could hundred years. Medieval warming period. Little ice age. Holocene optimum. Take Your pick.
This is going to be awesome! I hope we get 50 feet of snow this winter.

If we get 50 its time to panic
And also coinciding with the peak of the solar maximum of course. Perfect. Love it. 👌👍💯
