   Mediante as chuvas ocorridas em Jacobina nos últimos dias, e tudo o que vimos por causa dela, como, enchentes, electrodomésticos queimados por conta dos trovões, se tornou de extrema importância falar sobre esse tema. Logo, é imprescindível que vocês tenham conhecimento do vocabulário seguinte.

The Terrible Twins: El Niña and La Niño
&nbsp;El Niño and La Nina both originate in Pacific Ocean, but they are affecting the global climate. El Niño is the result of very warm water in the equatorial Pacific. La  Niña is a result of very cold water in the same region. &nbsp;During EL Niño, the distribution of dry and wet weather changes radically, especially along the pacific coasts of the American Continent. It rains a lot in normally dry regions, and there are sometimes terrible floods. Other regions suffer from abnormally dry conditions. &nbsp;La  Niña can produce severe Atlantic hurricanes. These are sometimes very destructive, like Hurricane Mitch in 1999. La Niña can also affect the weather in Australia, Indonesia, and southern Africa, with extreme storms and floods. Meteorologists are studying these Terrible Twins so they can prepare for possible future disasters.
