La Nina

Real World Example

Imagine if you suddenly turned down the thermostat in your house during winter, causing some rooms to become colder while others remain warm. This situation is similar to La Niña, where a decrease in the Pacific Ocean's temperature causes a shift in weather patterns around the globe. Just like how the cooler rooms in your house might make you bundle up or move to warmer areas, the cooler ocean temperatures during La Niña lead to changes in wind, precipitation, and temperature across different regions, affecting climates worldwide.
