Hop in as our ENSO blogger takes you on a road trip through the February 2022 ENSO forecast.
ENSO Blog
A blog about monitoring and forecasting El Niño, La Niña, and its impacts.
A high-level explainer of the jet stream. (Ha ha..."high-level"...get it?)
La Niña is likely near its peak strength, but that doesn't mean its impacts will disappear anytime soon.
As we enter our second La Niña winter in a row, our blogger explains what we know about the chances for a three-peat. (TL;DR: possible, but not statistically likely.)
What weather can the U.S. expect in the second winter of a double-dip La Niña? The Climate Prediction Center’s Mike Halpert lays it out in his discussion of the November update to NOAA’s winter outlook.
If ENSO is a romantic comedy, our ocean-atmosphere couple is in an on-again phase, and they're expected to stay together through the winter.
Why doesn't the climate behave like we expect? The answer often lies in the internal variability of our atmosphere. Our ENSO Blogger explains exactly what that is.
La Niña conditions have returned to the tropical Pacific. Our blogger gives you the details.
Our guest blogger explains how our food system is being controlled by ENSO. Also, why La Nina events are particularly troublesome.
The latest IPCC report on the Physical Science Basis of climate change covers pretty much everything you can think of, including ENSO. So what were its conclusions? Our ENSO Bloggers walk us through the report's conclusions and what they mean.
