This message is from Louann Talbert's seventh grade science class
at Laytonville Middle School in Laytonville CA. After a search on the WWW
of different El Nino sites such as USA Today, National Weather Service and
The Santa Rosa Press Democrat newspaper site my students came up with these
answers.
Tulips might bloom earlier because of warmer weather, more rain and
more wind, especially on the west coast. Tulips might rot because of too
much moisture in some places. This might happen here in northern
California. In southern California, flooding might damage tulips. The
rainstorms this year appear to be shorter, but harder here. It also
appears to be warmer, with less snow in the mountains here. So our tulips
may bloom earlier than last year. We would like to check measured data
from past years to check out our theories.
