What is driving the current global weather patterns?
A weak La Niña influence is keeping sea surface temperatures slightly cooler than average in the central Pacific, but land temperatures remain above the 1991–2020 baseline across most continents. Northern Hemisphere mid-latitudes are seeing a wavy jet stream, bringing unseasonable warmth to parts of Europe and colder air into the central US. In the Southern Hemisphere, a high-pressure ridge over the Indian Ocean is directing moist air towards northern Australia and Indonesia.
