W agner said it's impossible to say exact
lv what is causing the warmth, hut El Nino
might lie playing a rule
El Nino, a cyclic warming of water tern
peralures in the Bucific Ocean dial was no
tit ed again by scientists last year, has been
blamed for unusual weather all over the

world
Wagner s.iid the relative warmth and
dryness of iho current winter in Oregon has
been linked to hi Nino, and the recent
warm spell may he an extension of that
Unfortunately, today will likely be the
last nice dav for u while Wagner said an
ipproaching storm will slowlv push the
nigh pressure to the east, bringing cooler
temperatures and increased cloudiness try
later today and a chant e of showers just in
one for the weekend
