The answer is; C - Jetstream would be displaced southwards causing heavy rain and flooding


The above normal warm temperature in the Pacific cause the prevailing winds in the region to blow from west to east rather than the normative east to west. This brings in warm moist air from the Pacific towards the West coast of the southern USA and South America.The jet stream plays a critical role in driving storm energy causing high precipitation in dry regions of the southwest US during winter.
