El Niño winds and warming seas clash over Hurricane Isaias
Original: El Niño's storm-killer winds and climate's warming waters in fight over future of Hurricane Isaias
Hurricane Isaias has become the focus of competing meteorological forces: El Niño's strong upper-level winds, which tend to tear storms apart, are set against unusually warm ocean waters that fuel hurricane intensification. Scientists say the storm's future strength will hinge on which influence wins out. News outlets including PBS and ABC News are covering the contest as a vivid example of climate dynamics.
Why now: Isaias's path and intensity are uncertain as opposing climate forces pull in different directions, drawing wide public and media attention.
