La Niña watch is officially on: When will we feel its impact?

(NEXSTAR) – El Niño has officially ended, NOAA's Climate Prediction Center said Thursday, and its cooler counterpart could be just around the corner. La Niña conditions are predicted to take hold over the Pacific Ocean as soon as July, setting the stage to affect our weather here on land.

The Climate Prediction Center issued a La Niña watch Thursday. The group of national forecasters say there's a 65% chance La Niña forms between July and September. Chances increase even more as we move later into the year.
