LA CANADA FLINTRIDGE , Calif., Aug. 13 (UPI) -- A weather forecast suggests the Pacific Ocean's strengthening El Nino, warming the water, has the potential to be the strongest on record.
"This definitely has the potential of being the Godzilla El Nino," said Bill Patzert, NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory meteorologist, adding, "Everything now is going the right way for El Nino." Drought-stricken California could see heavy rains, mudslides and floods, beginning in the autumn.
