kpix 5 meteorologist paul deanno with the three things you need to know about this winter and beyond.porter: we do not have a crystal ball but we do have past history which is very wet. we also have computer forecast models which are also very wet. both paint the same picture for this winter. two of the wettest winters in the past 100 years have one thing in common, both happened during a very strong el nino. it's only happened twice, until this year. as of right now, this current el nino event is the strongest in modern history but these are just numbers and numbers don't fill reservoirs. rain does. snow melt does. will we actually start to end this drought? all of our research points to one answer: yes! here's the first point to remember. it will likely start to rain more in december but nowhere close to what we had last year. it rained more than three inches on december 11 alone and the month ended in double digits in san francisco. the other two decembers in very strong el nino events were markedly drier. both 1982 and 1997 saw less than three inches of rain for the whole month. t
