Meteorologists are warning of a more active winter weather season in south Florida as a result of a strong El Nino.
Sunshine and fair weather could be replaced with severe weather including thunderstorms, and potential for tornadoes.
El Nino is the warming of sea surface temperatures in the equatorial Pacific Ocean and can cause changes in weather patterns worldwide.
The CBS12 StormTrac weather team is prepared to bring you accurate forecasts to try to give plenty of warning days before these severe events are expected, so it’s important to check in with the forecast often through the winter season, and don’t let complacency catch you off guard.
