In 2009-2010 anyone on the eastern coast noticed a large increase in nor' easters. That's because this winter season was an El Nino. When an el nino occurs, the jet stream is shifted from its regular position in the Atlantic. It is shifted closer to the United States' east coast. This makes all of the low pressure systems follow right over it. Over time, in an El Nino year, there is an increased activity in low pressure systems up the east coast which creates more snow, rain, etc. (Nor' Easters)
What else can I help you with?
What are the trade winds of EL Nino?
During an El Nino event, the trade winds in the tropical Pacific weaken or even reverse direction. This weakening of the trade winds allows warm water to move eastward towards the coast of South America, disrupting normal oceanic and atmospheric patterns and leading to the warming of sea surface temperatures in the eastern Pacific.

El Nino refers to a warm ocean current that flows along the coast of?
El Nino refers to a climate pattern that involves the abnormal warming of ocean waters in the central and eastern tropical Pacific. This can lead to changes in global weather patterns, including increased rainfall in some regions and droughts in others.

What weather conditions can be expected in eastern Australia during the El Nino phenomeno?
El Nino brings drought conditions to eastern Australia. These effects often last for several years, and they are by no means restricted to the eastern states. Lack of rainfall accompanying an El Nino can also affect the west coast, bordering the Indian Ocean. Australia's severe bushfire seasons are often preceded by the El Nino phenomena, extending for any number of years. This was the case in the 1982-83 season, leading to the horrific Ash Wednesday bushfires, and again in 2008-09, leading to the even worse Victorian "Black Saturday" bushfires.
What happens to rainfall in Australia and off the coast of Peru during an El nino?
Along the coast of Peru, El Nino generally brings wet weather during December-February and above-normal temperatures throughout the year (as long as the El Nino exists).In Australia, El Nino means dry, and drought is not uncommon during these episodes, particularly in northern and eastern areas. El Nino has less effect on the southwestern quarter of the continent. In addition, El Nino summers (December-February) tend to be hotter than normal in Tasmania and nearby southeastern Australia.
