NOAA June 2021 ENSO Update: Too Early to Predict La Niña for 21/22, <10% Chance of El Niño

This post first appeared on the climate.gov ENSO blog and was written by Emily Becker ENSO-neutral conditions are present in the tropical Pacific, and NOAA forecasters think they’re likely to continue through the summer. Neutral is slightly favored through the fall, although it’s a close call between continued neutral and re-developing La Niña for the late fall and winter. Related: […]

This post first appeared on the climate.gov ENSO blog and was written by Tom Di Liberto We talk a lot about El Niño and La Niña at the ENSO blog, but there are other phenomena that garner interest among scientists, even if they do not have the same brand recognition as El Niño.

NOAA ENSO Blog: The Rise of El Niño and La Niña

This post first appeared on the climate.gov ENSO blog and was written by Michelle L’Heureux We often get asked how El Niño or La Niña events form and increase in strength. The key is in the ocean-atmosphere coupling across the tropical Pacific Ocean. Without it, ENSO would not exist, and it would be considerably more difficult to predict climate impacts seasons in advance. […]
