english: These oscillations that you may have heard of -- the Pacific Decadal Oscillation, El Niño -- they usually bring warm, dry winters to this region, but they also reduce the strength of the California Current, which runs from the north to the south along the Pacific Northwest, and they warm the coastal ocean.
non_english: Ove oscilacije za koje ste možda čuli, Pacifička dekadna oscilacija (PDO), El Ninjo, uglavnom donose tople, suve zime u ovaj region, ali takođe smanjuju jačinu kalifornijske struje koja teče od severa ka jugu duž pacifičkog severozapada i greju priobalne delove okeana.
