I have a feeling that this is a late-blooming 2024-2025 La Niña where it won’t be officially declared until February 2025 or March 2025, similar to 2005-2006 Weak La Niña that wasn’t officially declared until February 2006. The subsurface is so cold that the pent up cold water now could mean a late-show 2024-2025 La Niña that stalled in June, but rebounds and shows up in February-March 2025 could give 2025-2026 Super La Niña a head start
