El Niño goes, La Niña comes

El Niño conditions have prevailed in the equatorial Pacific in recent months. However, more and more cool deep water is currently reaching the surface off the west coast of South America and cooling it down. The transition from El Niño to La Niña is in full swing and will take place in the coming months.

An Overview of Different Starts to Spring

The start of spring varies depending on the definition: There is the astronomical or calendar start of spring, which occurs this afternoon at 3:46 p.m.; the meteorological spring, which always begins on March 1; and the phenological spring, which depends on the growth of plants.

Historic Spring Heat Wave in the U.S.

Currently, a heat dome is causing summer-like temperatures across large parts of the United States. During this historic event, high temperatures in some areas are 20 degrees above average, and in some places, all-time April records are even being broken in March.

Current sea ice extent in the Antarctic and Arctic

Typically, the lowest point of summer sea ice extent is reached in Antarctica between mid- and late February, with the winter maximum in the Arctic occurring somewhat later in March. Conversely, the lowest sea ice extent is recorded in the Arctic in mid-September, while the Antarctic reaches its maximum at this time. We are currently at the lowest levels of global sea ice extent since records began.

Tornado Season USA 2026

There were already a few tornadoes in the US in January and February, three of which even reached category EF2. However, most were weaker and caused only minor damage to property. In the meantime, however, activity has picked up significantly and reached a first negative peak last week, with eight people losing their lives on March 5 and 6. Today another explosive development is looming!

The sun is gaining strength, the UV index is rising

The days are getting longer. Compared to the shortest days around the winter solstice in December, the sun is now shining around three hours longer at the beginning of March. As the days get longer and the sun rises higher in the sky, exposure to harmful UV radiation increases again. Sun protection is therefore becoming increasingly important, especially for activities in the mountains, which are still covered in snow.

Relatively cold winter in Northern Europe

In Northern Europe, temperatures have been below average in recent weeks, causing sea ice in the Baltic Sea to expand to a relatively large extent. This was mainly due to recurring and persistent high-pressure systems, whereas in our region, air pressure was at record lows for a prolonged period.

Polar vortex and first winter trend 25/26

In late autumn and winter, attention repeatedly turns to the stratospheric polar vortex. Its intensity and behaviour also have a delayed influence on the actual weather layer – the troposphere. After a period of weakness in November, the polar vortex recovered, and now something is happening again. Here is an update!

Significant snow and ice storm in the USA

Arctic air masses are increasingly flowing into the United States from Canada. This is resulting in heavy snowfall in many places, while freezing rain is occurring in a transition zone. These ice accumulations in particular are likely to cause significant problems in some regions, with widespread power outages.
