Thanks for your comment. At the Climate Prediction Center, we use the Oceanic Nino Index (ONI) as the determination for the strength of the event. 

> 0.5C - Weak; >1.0C - Moderate; >1.5C - Strong

We do not have a super category.

We recognize that others may determine the strengths of El Nino events differently.
