A very strong El Niño is expected this year. That's why it's important to take the time to nail down your household plan. Know your evacuation routes, decide on a family meeting place and make a communication plan.

El Niño is here, let’s break down what it is and what it could mean for California. El Niño happens when parts of the Pacific Ocean become warmer than usual. This warming can influence weather patterns across the Pacific, increasing the chance for stronger storms, coastal flooding and other weather impacts in California. El Niño can look different depending on where you live, so it’s important we take steps to prepare. Cal OES encourages all Californians to get ready now by staying informed and signing up for local emergency alerts at Ready.ca.gov, listening to local authorities and making an emergency plan with your family.
