What Is La Nina: What is La Nina, due to whose absence even the weather department is worried, it has a special connection with the onset of winter.

New Delhi: November has started but the cold is still missing. The Meteorological Department said that heat wave will be seen across the country for the next two weeks. Only after that there is a possibility of some change in the weather. However, the Meteorological Department has still not made a clear prediction of the arrival of winter. IMD chief Mrityunjay Mohapatra said that we are not able to tell the date of arrival of winter because La Nina has not developed yet. Therefore the Meteorological Department cannot make clear predictions about winter at this time. Let us tell you that La Niña is a climatic phenomenon that is associated with periodic cooling of sea surface temperatures in the central and east-central equatorial Pacific region. There is a possibility of La Nina formation in November-December. If this happens, there is a possibility of severe cold in the coming season (December-February).

La Nina has a direct connection with winter

IMD chief Mrityunjay Mohapatra said La Nina is usually associated with a drop in temperatures over north and northwest India during winter. Research is underway to find out why La Nina conditions have not yet developed despite favorable conditions. Let us tell you that in November, IMD has predicted ‘above normal’ maximum temperatures in North-East and East Central India and parts of North-West and Peninsular India.
