Well, maybe. Or, probably. Or... Read more @ http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/i...ino-ish-but-things-could-change/#.U5MWYRawVig I wonder if a whole lot of American fishing boats are out there causing this.
The latest news coming in from the Australian Weather Bureau is that the el nino conditions are dying.
Here’s What We Can Expect From El Niño This Year Adam Glanzman, June 13, 2014 Yeah. Sure. We'll just wait and see how accurate this GUESS is. Read more @ http://time.com/2863838/heres-what-we-can-expect-from-el-nino-this-year/
Main stream US new is starting to pick up now. The possibility El Nino is dying we might even get a la nina. This is reminiscent of what we saw during the 1945-1976 cooling when la nina's dominated.
Chances of El Niño weather look more likely Certainly doesn't have the awesome beauty of so many epic movies shot in New Zealand, does it. But, this report comes from people deeply interested in the phenomenon so it deserves, at least, a bit of attention.

Sorry WMO is just behind the curve. This is actually what is known as a Modoki event, where the ENSO index trends up a little but fails to get into El Nino range as trade winds die. They were very common during the 1947-1976 cool phase of the PDO. With the PDO back in its negative phase expect to see more of these. Make no mistake that the new Obama admin push was timed to coincide with what they thought was going to be an el nino. Now we are more likely to get a strong la nina.
