Open House – April 30-May THE SIGNAL IN THE NOISE – STRONG EL NIÑO AND THE MID-ATLANTIC

WHAT WE’LL COVER Patterns from last winter Forecast for the summer

EL NIÑO/SOUTHERN OSCILLATION NDJ : 2.30

WINTER TIME SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURE ANOMALIES

NORTH ATLANTIC OSCILLATION (NAO) A measure of the jet stream pattern over the north Atlantic.

NAO – POSITIVE PHASE L bye….

NAO – NEGATIVE PHASE L Uh oh….

NORTH ATLANTIC OSCILLATION (5-Dec-2015)

TEMPERATURE ANOMALIES DURING STRONG EL NIÑO EVENTS (DEC-FEB) Above normal (50%): , , Near normal (17%): Below normal (33%): , Rank (strongest Los Niños): 1) ) ) ) ) )

TEMPERATURE ANOMALIES DEC 2015-FEB 2016
