- La Niña conditions have finally surfaced in the Pacific Ocean.
- Below average sea surface temperatures reflected along the central and eastern Pacific Ocean.
- La Niña is a phase and known as the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO).
- This climate phenomenon is characterised by changes in sea temperatures along the central and eastern tropical Pacific Ocean, accompanied with fluctuations in the atmosphere overhead.
- ENSO influences, alters, and interferes with the global atmospheric circulation, which, in turn, influences the weather worldwide.
- ENSO has three phases – warm (El Niño), cool (La Niña), and neutral — which occur in irregular cycles of two to seven years.
- La Niña last occurred in 2020-2023, and El Niño in 2023-24.
