Browning Newsletter: Conditions Just Right for Tornado Season
Las Vegas, Nev. (PRWEB) May 28, 2014 -- A quiet start to tornado season doesn’t necessarily mean it will end that way, according to noted climatologist Evelyn Browning-Garriss of the Browning Newsletter.
“We’ve seen a bit of a Goldilocks effect the past couple of seasons—in 2012, it was too hot for an active season, and in 2013 it was too cold,” said Browning-Garriss. “2014 started with a cold spring, but now conditions are just right.”
Browning-Garriss noted that a warm Pacific Ocean and Gulf of Mexico colliding with cooler weather create these “just right” conditions for tornados to form. The Browning Newsletter is long known for being one of the most accurate reports on climate in the world.
Tornado season begins in the south, said Browning-Garriss, and moves north as the season progresses. Because of this, winter tornadoes tend to be more southern and are seen further north later in the year.
“It’s possible that we’ll see less tornado activity because the season started so late, but it’s not an indicator that the season will produce less damaging storms,” said Browning-Garriss. “Particularly if people are caught off guard because they’re expecting a quieter season, more damage may be seen. It’s important to know that just because a season begins quietly doesn’t mean it will end that way.”
Last month, Browning-Garriss predicted that conditions forming in the Pacific could produce an El Nino this summer that could bring fall and winter drought relief to the Western United States, particularly in California.
