2025-2026 ENSO

this is a pretty wild change near Japan since August. that heatwave is almost entirely wiped out... wondering if this is a change to a +PDO down the road, especially if we get a Nino next year

I can see 2013, 2014 though? Lol That was +ENSO and ++PDO

Edit: @40/70 Benchmark @bluewave @donsutherland1 Strongest -IOD of the 21st century
 

Either way 2014 isn’t an analog I would use, but I do think it’s worth keeping an open mind about +ENSO analogs if other factors line up. I would prefer a negative PDO though

2025 ACE:

Through Sept 16th: 39

Sept 17th+: 74 and rising rapidly.

The full season to date ACE is progged to get above the 1991-2020 full season avg of 122 by tonight and then go well above that within the next few days. This very active late season ACE has been the pattern especially in recent La Nina seasons.

 There have been 4 MH with 3 of them occurring since Sept 22!

 

Which worked well for my peak season forecast, though I missed Melissa by 11 hours lol.

That should help to slow down the raging pac jet a bit this winter but we need more cooling to see a more pronounced slow down.
