Extreme Weather's video: El Nino Rains Brings Flash Flooding California 06 01 2016

Follow Extreme Weather on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ExtremeWeatherChannel A series of El Niño-enhanced storms will continue to bring more beneficial rain and snow along with hazards to California and the southwestern U.S. in absence of a pineapple express. The above-average temperatures in the tropical Pacific Ocean, known as El Niño, tend to strengthen the storm track into the West Coast and occasionally California during the winter. The current El Niño has tied the strength of the El Niño during 1997, which was the strongest on record. The storms which initially brought rain, snow and ice to much of the Pacific coast of the United States to start the week will spiral progressively farther south into Friday. This sort of rainfall, while not extreme as the biggest El Niño year storms, will be enough to cause incidents of flash and urban flooding, as well as mudslides and other debris flows. The storms will be significant enough, without the presence of a steady stream of tropical moisture feeding in, often referred to as a pineapple express or pineapple connection.
