The system has almost no chance of developing during the next two days, but its seven-day formation odds have increased to 40 percent. Conditions could become more favorable by midweek.

New Potentially Historic El Niño Forecast Raises Stakes For Winter Across Northeast New Potentially Historic El Niño Forecast Raises Stakes For Winter Across Northeast
New Potentially Historic El Niño Forecast Raises Stakes For Winter Across Northeast A powerful climate pattern gathering strength thousands of miles away could leave a significant mark on the Northeast’s winter.

Whether those storms deliver rain or substantial snow remains uncertain. NOAA’s Climate Prediction Center said on Thursday, Sept. 10, that El Niño has a 75 percent chance of exceeding the strength of every event recorded since 1950 during the October-through-December period. That is up from 69 percent …
