abc13.comThe Blob: It's real and it's back! Does it mean more Houston floods?
You know and I know it floods in Houston and there are a LOT of reasons why: Tropical systems, back-building thunderstorms, slow-moving cold fronts, El Nio Pacific Moisture. The Blob is abnormally, super warm water in the Gulf of Alaska that continues down the coasts of Canada and the United States. Warm water = warm moist rising air. If there is a saving grace, we also had a VERY strong El Nio from 2014-2016 and that adds even more moisture into the equation. We do not have a strong El Nio right now and none is forecast anytime soon:Follow that red line and you can see it's just above the 0, or neutral line.
