El Niño is coming. How will it affect winter travel?

Deseret News reports that the upcoming 2023-2024 El Niño, the first in four years, is set to alter weather patterns, impacting winter travel across North America.

Canada, alongside the northern U.S., can anticipate a drier and warmer winter due to El Niño. Typically, the weakening of trade winds during an El Niño phase causes warm Pacific Ocean water to shift eastwards towards the Americas, resulting in this weather pattern.

Climate change may further influence these conditions, potentially exacerbating the effects. Travellers should remain vigilant to the expected weather changes, preparing alternative travel plans to anticipate potential disruptions caused by this climatic event.
