This time it didn’t. I haven’t figured out how to spot those unusual cases where the extratropics lead (more common during boreal winter).

Phil Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 Good way to demonstrate this. Note the -dAAMt was that originally modeled for late July is now progged to begin in early/mid August. Huge miss across guidance with this one. And it’s still getting delayed. Most of this is due to the model underestimating the La Niña circulation (rising AAM integral to fast/early), but that makes it more difficult to accurately determine the timing of the peak and subsequent negative tendency absent a coherent picture of the MJO/GWO at-range. If this La Niña regime wasn’t such a beast the intraseasonal cycle might’ve been more coherent/accurate in the model. 5 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cloud Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 17 minutes ago, Phil said: Actually the last 2 triple dip niñas were followed by ENSO neutral. 1998-2000 followed by neutral in 2001/02. Then El Niño in 2002/03. 1974-1976 followed by neutral in 1976/77. In fact ENSO neutral continued until the super niño in 1982/83. The 1954/55 to 1956/57 triple -ENSO was followed by a super El Niño in 1957/58, but ironically 1957 was a cool summer in the West. Not trying to contradict you but.. are you saying a climate.gov analysis is wrong? Quote As we’ve mentioned a few times here on the ENSO Blog, we’ve had La Niña for three winters in a row only twice before:1973–1976 and 1998–2001. Both of those periods followed very strong El Niño events https://www.climate.gov/news-features/blogs/enso/may-2022-enso-update-piece-cake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their fault, not yours. Neither event was followed by a “very strong” niño. 2001/02 was ENSO neutral, and 1976/77 was a weak event that barely met the threshold. Here’s ENSO ONI back to 1950. 2 Quote Live Weather Cam: https://www.youtube.com/live/KxlIo8-KVpc?si=xKLCFYWbZieAfyh6 PWS Wunderground https://www.wunderground.com/dashboard/pws/KMDBETHE62 PWS CWOP/NOAA: https://www.weather.gov/wrh/timeseries?site=F3819&hours=72 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 1973/74 to 1975/76 event was most certainly not “followed by” a strong niño. Here’s ENSO ONI back to 1950. Crap like this shouldn't even be allowed to publish on a .gov website then. It looked to me the next strong Nino event was 82/83 after the first triple dip events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually reading it again they said the last two triple dip niñas *followed* strong Niños, not that they were *followed by* strong Niños. In other words, those cases were strong Niños *followed by* triple dip Niñas. Where-as the current event followed the warm-neutral ENSO of 2019/20.

Phil Posted July 25, 2022 Report Share Posted July 25, 2022 However the 1954-56 triple dip -ENSO was preceded by a weak Niño (and a generally Niño heavy period onwards from 1952). Which is more similar to this year.
