If you are looking for ways to explain El Niño to producers or your parents or children, you might be interested in two recent resources on El Niño that I found online.

The World Meteorological Organization has a simple 3-minute video tutorial which explains what El Niño is and how it affects global climate at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v92Iqihct98.

Closer to home, the NWS office in Tampa Bay, Florida has provided a new “map journal” of the impacts of El Niño on Florida.  You can view it here.  While geared towards Florida, much of the information is generally applicable to the Southeast.
