00:00El Nino this winter could be the strongest ever recorded, shaping storms and snowfall across the
00:05U.S. AccuWeather meteorologist says it's almost certain to surpass the powerful events of 1982-83
00:11and 1997-98. This means the southern storm track will strengthen, bringing more precipitation from
00:18California to the Gulf Coast. While northern areas see warmer conditions and fewer arctic blasts,
00:24snowfall will shift too, with heavy snow expected early in the Sierra Nevada and Rockies,
00:30and more snow in the plains later in winter. Yet, the Northeast, Midwest, and Northwest may see
00:36below-average snow overall. Philadelphia could get 5 to 15 inches, down from 30 inches last winter,
00:42and Boston 15 to 30 inches instead of 62. Meanwhile, California faces flooding risks from atmospheric
00:49rivers, with heavy mountain snow and rain possible. Meteorologist warns, it only takes one storm to
00:56flip the script, especially for East Coast cities. Disclosure, this video contains stock footage and
