A super El Ni\u00f1o is developing and will impact Quebec and Canada in June.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Environment Canada says it will drive unusual and extreme weather patterns across the globe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

El Ni\u00f1o is a climate phenomenon where surface waters in the central and eastern Pacific Ocean become significantly warmer than normal and disrupts atmospheric circulation, setting off a chain reaction that can alter weather worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Quebec will be impacted, despite the reality the Pacific is a bit away and will be influenced by Atlantic circulation patterns that can bring extreme weather but it’s too early to determine how summer rainfall will be affected.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
