El Nino winds and warming seas battle over Hurricane Isaias
Original: El Niño's storm-killer winds and climate's warming waters in fight over future of Hurricane Isaias
Hurricane Isaias is being shaped by two opposing forces: El Nino's high-altitude winds, which tend to tear storms apart, and warmer ocean waters linked to climate change, which fuel hurricane intensification. News outlets worldwide are covering how this clash will determine whether Isaias strengthens or weakens as it moves across the Atlantic, framing it as an example of competing climate influences on storm season.
Why now: Hurricane Isaias is an active storm whose track and strength affect Atlantic coastal communities, and the El Nino versus warming-waters angle is a novel science story.
