IRI
has noted that while there is a small chance that La Nina conditions
could re-emerge in the coming months, they have effectively declared the
record setting 2010/11 La Nina event dead. We agree with their outlook
for generally neutral conditions for the remainder of the year.
The chart below shows the dramatic shift in the Southern Oscillation Index (SOI) from May into June, where the current value is in the neutral range. Further, the map from Weather Trends notes the absence of the cold equatorial Pacific Ocean SST anomaly, with warming starting to build in the eastern (Nino 1.2) regions.
