Correlation between El Nino and europe weather

AI Thread Summary
There is ongoing discussion about the correlation between El Niño events and weather patterns in Europe. While El Niño primarily affects the Central Tropical Pacific Ocean, its influence can lead to significant weather changes across Europe. Historically, during El Niño episodes, the UK and Scandinavian regions tend to experience cooler and wetter winters, whereas the Mediterranean region often sees warmer and drier conditions. However, the specific impacts can vary with each event, and there is a lack of formal scientific surveys definitively outlining these correlations. As a new El Niño develops, expectations for upcoming weather patterns in Europe remain uncertain, but past trends suggest notable regional variations.

Does anyone know if there is any correlation between these two?I mean most of the times during El Nino events the weather here in Europe gets ''crazy'' but till now i haven't seen any formal scientific survey which describes it with certainty. Now with the new El Nino being formed what kind of weather patterns should we expect in Europe in the next months?

El Nino is a warming of the Central Tropical Pacific Ocean. In others words, a long way from Europe.


The effects are not entirely clear, but in most El Niño's episodes, the United Kingdom and the Scandinavian region usually gets a cooler and wetter conditions during winter months, while the Mediterranean Sea region gets a warmer and drier winter.

On August 10, 2025, there was a massive landslide on the eastern side of Tracy Arm fjord. Although some sources mention 1000 ft tsunami, that height represents the run-up on the sides of the fjord. Technically it was a seiche.

Hello, I’m currently writing a series of essays on Pangaea, continental drift, and Earth’s geological cycles. While working on my research, I’ve come across some inconsistencies in the existing theories — for example, why the main pressure seems to have been concentrated in the northern polar regions. So I’m curious: is there any data or evidence suggesting that an external cosmic body (an asteroid, comet, or another massive object) could have influenced Earth’s geology in the distant...
