11 hours ago · little-known weather pattern when el nino and la nina are no longer in control Generally speaking, an event that lasts for three months or longer with water temperature anomalies above +0.5 degrees Celsius is considered an Atlantic Niño, while temperatures cooler than -0.5 degrees Celsius result in an Atlantic Niña.
4 days ago · In this case, that would mean May-June-July and June-July-August. Given the August weakening, it’s less likely this event will make the official cut. We will make a final call on that once we’ve had time to analyze August completely. #3: Atlantic Niños and Niñas have regional impacts. Global impacts are less certain.

4 days ago · It’s rare to see both Nina’s at the same time, but both appeared to be developing in August 2024. That could help soften hurricane season, but don’t bet on it.
6 days ago · Above-normal sea-surface temperature anomalies in the Niño 3.4 and Niño 3 regions are predicted to decline during September-November 2024 and are predicted to reach weak La Niña conditions. Farther west in the Niño 4 region, the sea-surface temperature anomaly is predicted to be near-normal. The strength of the Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD) index is also predicted to return to near normal. In ...
Aug 8, 2024 · El Niño occurs when the water in the eastern and central tropical Pacific is warmer than average, while La Niña occurs when the water is cooler than average. That change in water temperature can jumble up the tropical atmosphere above it, causing a global cascade of atmospheric impacts.
