It's official. La Nina' is here. Atlantic Hurricane season is more active during La Nina', but it is still too early to tell, although at the conference in Atlanta, where NWS changed the Fujita scale beginning in 2007, some thinking was the Atlantic Season will even be more active than predicted by Dr. Gray and Phil Klozbatch.
