SHORT TERM FORECASTS UPDATE

ENSO CONDITIONS ENSO Alert System Status: El Niño Watch ENSO-neutral conditions continue. Positive equatorial sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies continue across most of the Pacific Ocean. There is a 58% chance of El Niño during the Northern Hemisphere winter, which is favored to last into the Northern Hemisphere spring CPC Summary 11/17/2014 Most models favor El Niño (greater than or equal to +0.5ºC) to develop during October- December 2014 and persist through Northern Hemisphere spring The chance of El Niño is 58% during the Northern Hemisphere winter and decreases into spring/summer 2015.
