Why the nor'easter's storm surge was so high

Original: Why the nor'easter’s storm surge was so high, and what it says about the El Niño winter ahead

A powerful nor'easter along the US East Coast produced an unusually high storm surge, flooding coastal communities. Experts say a strengthening El Niño may have shaped the storm's track and intensity, and warn that the pattern could influence the rest of the winter, potentially bringing more coastal storms and milder, wetter conditions across parts of the country.

Why now: A strong coastal storm and the forecast of an El Niño winter are raising concern about further flooding and severe weather this season.
