NOAA finally announced the official El Nino this week. It disappeared within hours.
What they aren’t saying is that this was the sorriest little El Nino spike on record.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

Most indices still show weak El Nino conditions.

Maybe we can expect a ‘global warming is changing El Nino pattern’ claim.
More Nada than Nino but it did make the grade on certain criteria …. good discussion in the comments at WUWT about whether or not the el Nino should have been called.
. Joseph Bastardi was calling it a El Niño Modoki. Note the cold tongue of the Humboldt current running up the west coast of South America
I really love the dark red along the east coast indicating much higher than normal temperatures Sea temperatures.
Icebergs Wash Ashore On Cape Cod
If it gets much warmer the entire ocean will freeze over…
Actually Joe Bastardi says the warm along the east coast is the last gasp of a positive AMO before it turns negative.
When is the last time this happened?
what is positive vs negative AMO?
El Aborto!
Darn it Gator, now I have to clean the tea off my keyboard and monitor.
I am sure there is a lot of swearing going on over at NOAA. They have really been counting on a nice Super El Niño to jack up the temperatures this summer and fall before the festivities in Paris.
Instead Layman’s Sunspot Count showed eight consecutive spotless days for February and 3 spotless days so far this March. The sun is having a really festive maximum and the liars at NOAA know that means no reprieve from the falling temperatures.
If we are lucky there will be a humongous surprise blizzard in Paris and few if any will show for the big gala event. Heck with luck most of the major airports will get snowed in.
Warmists in general have been counting on this El Niño, hoping that it would really crank up the heat and show those deniers a thing or two about climate. It’s almost like Mother Nature is giving them a great big raspberry. I’m loving it.
Never tire of seeing that one. Looks like ol” Mama Gaia is thinking of snapping that arrogant, propagandist dweeb’s anti-science head off.
If it wasn’t a copyright violation I would send it to all the DemiRats in DC.
I didn’t know that sending a link to a publicly-posted image is considered a copyright violation.
I was thinking of a poster size copy to pinned on their door.
LOL 😀
