La Nina

Real World Example

Imagine you're in a room where someone suddenly turns the air conditioning way down, making it uncomfortably cold. This drop in temperature not only affects how you feel but also changes the dynamics in the room, like causing people to huddle together for warmth or even make different choices about where to sit. Similarly, La Niña involves a decrease in the Pacific Ocean's temperature, which, like the air conditioning, leads to wide-reaching effects on global weather patterns, causing shifts in atmospheric behavior just as the cold air causes shifts in how people behave in the room.
