Spanish term

condicionaron un empuje de humedad

Spanish to English Tech/Engineering Environment & Ecology Weather
La situación de emergencia ha sido ocasionada por centros de bajas presiones que condicionaron un empuje de humedad procedente del Océano Pacífico.


May I translate condicionaron as determined. IMHO, I don´t think "...conditioned..." fits here.

Any suggestion?

Thanks in advance.
