Our Report on the JAMSTEC Three-Season Forecast – May 15, 2023

May 15, 2023Posted inweatherNo Comments

The Japan Agency for Marine-Earth Science and Technology, or JAMSTEC, is a Japanese national research institute for marine-earth science and technology

From the JAMSTEC Discussion:

“Observation shows that the La Niña Modoki-like state persists. The SINTEX-F ensemble mean predicts that an El Niño will occur in June. However, there is a large uncertainty in the predictions of the amplitude, and the ensemble mean of the SINTEX-F2-3DVAR version predicts a relatively weak El Niño.” [This puts JAMSTEC in disagreement with NOAA and most other Meteorological Agencies]

Although it is a World forecast, it includes a forecast for North America since North America is part of the World.

Review of the World’s Weather in April of 2023 – May 13, 2023

May 13, 2023Posted inweatherNo Comments

Every month the NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information and other NOAA entities review the weather for the World in the prior Month. There is a long detailed report and I receive a summary of that report. In this article I am going to present two slides from the full report and then the email I received in its entirety.

Certainly, the Global ocean temperature setting a record for April is pretty significant. The combined land and ocean temperature being the fourth highest, to me is not a surprise at all as the first graphic in the body of the article suggests.
