“Triple-dip” La Niña
According to the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), it is likely that the current La Niña event will last until at least the end of the year, becoming this century’s first triple-dip La Niña, spanning three consecutive northern hemisphere winters. The WMO predicts the continuation of the current La Niña over the next six months, with a 70% chance in September-November 2022, but gradually decreasing to 55% in December-February 2022/2023. It started in September 2020.
