During this severe weather awareness week, we are under a weather watch that could extend into next winter.
South Dakota State Climatologist Dr. Dennis Todey says the Climate Prediction Center has issued an advisory for a developing La Nina

A La Nina means that Pacific Ocean temperatures will be cooling. That has an effect on weather across much of North America.
Todey says we will see effects of a fading El Nino, and a intensifying La Nina

Todey says the La Nina could stretch into next winter

Todey says we should see a stretch of cool rainy weather in the short term.
