La Niña

La Niña is a complex weather pattern that occurs every few years, as a result of variations in ocean temperatures in the equatorial band of the Pacific Ocean. The phenomenon occurs as strong winds blow warm water at the ocean’s surface away from South America, across the Pacific Ocean towards Indonesia. As this warm water moves west, cold water from the deep sea rises to the surface near South America; it is considered to be the cold phase of the broader El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) weather phenomenon, as well as the opposite of El Niño weather pattern. The movement of so much heat across a quarter of the planet, and particularly in the form of temperature at the ocean surface, can have a significant effect on weather across the entire planet.

It’s Sunday and I’ve had a very introspective day. I have started writing down my entire life story, but mostly the bad bits. I want to connect all of the bad pieces of me on paper, so that I have a record of it forever, even when I’m old and it fades into one concise snapshot.

A lot of my headspace is being used to hold on to these old memories. I haven’t managed to remove them from the active part of my head because I haven’t written them down…
