On Thursday, climate and weather experts will discuss key findings from NOAA's U.S. and global climate analyses for October, the latest El Niño/La Niña update, and the U.S. seasonal outlooks for temperature, precipitation and drought for the next three months. An expert from the Center for Western Weather and Water Extremes will also provide a review of the exceptional atmospheric river event that brought record rainfall and triggered multiple landslides across parts of California last month.
