The Climate Prediction Center also predicted a La Niña weather event will continue during the first three months of the year.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said that the event causes well below-average sea surface temperatures in the eastern and central Pacific Ocean. La Niña tends to last nine to 12 months, but during the winter temperatures are typically warmer than normal in the southeastern U.S. and cooler than normal in the northwestern U.S.
