During the last real strong El Nino (1998) there was Dorado caught off the coast of Southern California. That is a warm water fish. They are no where near the southern California coast now. Way down south in Baja. The waters in the Eastern Pacific, Gulf of Mexico and in the Atlantic are now primarily colder then normal. So the whole theory of warmer water causing these recent large precipitation amounts is complete bunk. There are many factors that determine evaporation rates. Air pressure, humidity and wind speed are very critical. There are two large low pressures forming together near DC right now. Those low pressures are sucking in water vapor from the colder then normal ocean waters. It is the size and magnitude of the low air pressure systems. The storm that dumped over 7 feet of snow in the mountains of So Cal, broke many state city records for lowest ever pressure. Warmer water will evaporate more water, but it is only one component of evaporation. Besides, how in the heck did the ancient Glaciers form during a cold period ?
