Tracking California Rains During El Niño

The video discusses the impact of El Niño on weather patterns, particularly in California. It explains how El Niño warms the ocean surface, affecting the atmosphere and jet stream. NASA's GPM Mission helps monitor these changes, predicting substantial rainfall in California. The video details the rainfall in Northern and Southern California, noting significant increases in precipitation. However, El Niño's effects are variable, as seen in the dry February. The video concludes with the importance of space observations in understanding and predicting these weather patterns, acknowledging that while the rains help, they won't solve California's water crisis.
