Summary
La Niña may be gone, but its impact doesn’t end when the pattern fades, according to a new study from NOAA researchers and the Cooperative Institute. Now, as scientists watch for signs that El Niño could emerge in the Pacific, there are growing concerns about what comes next , including the possible return of an ocean heat wave known as “the Blob.” USA TODAY National Correspondent for Climate and the Environment Dinah Voyles Pulver joins The Excerpt to discuss the lingering impacts of La Niña and the potential impact of El Niño.
