Answer:

During El Niño, the southern tier of Alaska and the U.S. Pacific Northwest tend to be warmer than average, whereas the U.S. southern tier of state—from California to the Carolinas—tends to be cooler and wetter than average. During La Niña, these deviations from the average are approximately (but not exactly) reversed.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

During El Nino, the jet stream goes from west to east. While it is oriented from west to east it crosses the southern portion of the United States of America. This region becomes a lot more susceptible to severe weather during the winter. During La Nina, the jet stream and very severe weather are more likely to happen more farther to the north.
