Thanks for your questions, but I will start by saying NOAA's ENSO forecasters are not getting ahead of themselves - they are focused on the next several months! However, as we discussed on the ENSO Blog before, it is common for La Ninas to double-dip (and even occasionally triple-dip like we saw recently). So, if La Nina develops by late summer or fall, as expected, then both history and what we know about the physics of ENSO suggest that a double-dip La Nina (into the winter of 2025-26) would not be unusual.
