El Niño significantly impacts weather patterns in the Northern Hemisphere, often leading to warmer temperatures and altered precipitation patterns. It can cause increased rainfall in the southern United States and parts of Mexico, while areas like the Pacific Northwest may experience drier conditions. Additionally, El Niño can influence hurricane activity in the Atlantic, typically reducing the number of storms. Overall, its effects can lead to both beneficial and adverse conditions across various regions.

Where does the El Nino cause drought?

El Nino does not cause droughts. El Nino is a 27 mile long ocean current off the western coast of South America. It has little effect on anything outside of its locality. It does or does not send warmer waters up the western cost of the western hemisphere, but has very little meteorological effect. What you may be reaching for is called the "Southern Oscillation." This is an atmospheric current that cycles every seven years (approximately). The Southern Oscillation has an affect on El Nino that can cause it to cycle into what is referred to as the La Nina cycle. The Southern Oscillation can affect weather patterns globally, but concentrates in the southern latitudes of the Northern Hemisphere. Somehow western media grabbed onto the term "El Nino" about fifteen years ago and began applying it to referrences to the Southern Oscillation, perhaps because it was sexier for the talking heads to rattle off a Spanish sounding term than the more mundane correct term.


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.
