That 1 map sums up why 23/24 failed as a Niño imho.

Absolutely. I didn't understand that 3 years ago and misdiagnosed it as a Modoki signal.

The UKMET, which pretty much nailed the 2023 ONI peak of ~+2.0, just updated for Sept: it peaks at ~+3.3 in Nov:

 

 The prior run (Aug) had peaked at only +3.1:

 

Regarding Nino 1+2, it also strengthened:

New run: a little >+4 (this like for 3.4 above is not relative and thus doesn’t taken into account GW well):

 

Prior run (Aug): ~+3.8

The other site shows -.41 as of 9/10. Still a rise, but not that dramatic.
