The latest seasonal Global Climate Update from the World Meteorological Organization predicts: "With normal sea surface temperatures expected to continue across all major oceans, except the eastern Pacific near equator, above-average temperatures are forecast for most of the world's land areas."
Higher than average temperatures are expected in most of the southern and eastern United States next month, except for the northeast.
AccuWeather forecasters expect Arizona, New Mexico and Texas to see their warmest weather, with average spring temperatures likely to be 4 degrees Celsius above the state's historical average.
But AccuWeather forecaster Paul past past past past noted that the northwestern United States remains dry and temperatures increase faster, while the northwest Pacific Ocean is colder due to persistent thunderstorms and snowfall. The storm will be more concentrated in the northwest Pacific Ocean of the United States and western Canada in March.
Areas from the northeastern inland to the midwest may also see late snowfall in the season, while the central region is affected by harsh weather and tornadoes. The cool air around Ngu Dai Ho will help prevent severe weather in most areas during the early spring and the end of the La Nina phenomenon.
According to the World Meteorological Organization, there is a 60% chance of the weather shifting from La Nina to a neutral state between March and May, and that possibility increases to 70% between April and June.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) said that the possibility of a temperature transition from La Nina to neutral from March to May could be even higher.
Forecasters note that these natural climate phenomena also occur along with climate change, leading to more severe weather.
Despite the existence of La Nina, January 2025 is still the warmest January and 2024 is also the hottest year on record.
According to the nonprofit organization Climate Central, since 2020, about 90% of the 247 US cities have set many records for higher temperatures than the record for cold.
