From Australia today: they are still saying ENSO Neutral: The Bureau considers that the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) in the tropical Pacific remains neutral. While many of the indicators have recently met the threshold for La Niña they have not been sustained for levels or duration sufficient to warrant La Niña status.

We had a sub freezing high with sun when it didn’t get out of the 20s during the day (midnight high) in late Feb 2023 after a snowstorm. At times it was a mini ground blizzard and this was on Feb 23rd!

I had a suspicion the models would start to indicate back digging, and that's what happened on the AI models tonight. Big potential.

January has sun angles about like December. Lots of time still. Seattle had a high of 29 in March in 1955 so the sun angle thing is blown out of proportion IMO. It eventually becomes a big deal of course.

Sun angles are rising. Heart of winter is disappearing fast. Need this within a week on models starting this weekend or I don’t think it’s going to happen. Good news tho, days start getting shorter in 163 days.
