El Niño impact may bring chilly spring to the South

This winter may go in the record books as one of the coldest the state has ever experienced.

Now, meteorologists are predicting a colder than normal spring.



"We're talking April, May, June [with] above average precipitation and below average temperatures," News 14 Carolina meteorologist Tara Lane said.

It's all due to El Niño. Locally, it's responsible for the erratic weather that includes spurts of snow, ice and rain.

On Sunday, many enjoyed milder temperatures.

Lane is predicting even more winter weather on Tuesday.

"We could be looking at rain changing into a snow-sleet mix later into the night and a possibility again of icy slick areas Wednesday morning," she said.

The effects of El Niño are being felt through the South, Gulf states and up through the Carolinas.
