KRON —
Meteorologists are pretty confident the La Niña conditions we’ve seen all year are going to be with us at least a few months longer. There’s a 91% chance the La Niña conditions last from September to November, the National Weather Service’s Climate Prediction Center said in an update Thursday.
Those odds have strengthened since the meteorologists’ last update in August.
According to the latest outlook, it looks like this La Niña fall is set to be a hot one. Every state in the country, except for the most northern reaches that border Canada, is forecast to see above-average temperatures from September through November.
Most of coastal California has around a 40% chance of being hotter than average. Inland and Southern California have an even stronger chance of extra heat in the fall season.
