The Tropical South Pacific surface water temperature anomalies during the past 4 weeks from 06 November 2024 to 27 November 2024 (from to bottom in the graphic below).
The yellow to red colors denote above normal warm water temperatures, the blue colors are the colder than normal surface water - dark blue shows areas of much below normal.
As noted in the time series below (from top to bottom), during the past 4-weeks from 06 November to 27 November 2024 - the area of cooler than normal surface water (blue colors in top panel) has not enlarged or strengthened due to the lack of upwelling of the colder than normal subsurface water below.
The Subsurface Water (left graphic) has not strengthened or enlarged in area during the past 6 weeks, and this is delaying upwelling of cooler water to the surface - and delaying the formation of a La Nina event.
Neutral ENSO conditions will continue into January 2025.

ENSO Alert System Status: La Niña Watch
ENSO-neutral conditions are present.*
Equatorial sea surface temperatures (SSTs) are mostly near average in the central and eastern Pacific Ocean.
La Niña is most likely to emerge in October-December 2024 (57% chance) and is expected to persist through January-March 2025.*

a. Tropical Pacific Ocean Subsurface Temperatures
(down to 250 meters) - see figure 1 below
For an El Niño or La Niña to Form - the subsurface water must warm or cool dramatically across the Central and Eastern Tropical Pacific - and then have the warmer or cooler than normal water upwell to the surface.
El Niño events are associated with much warmer than normal surface and subsurface temperatures.
La Niña events are the opposite and are associated with much cooler than normal surface and subsurface temperatures.
During the period from 05 October to 24 November 2024 (top to bottom panels) -
the area of colder than normal subsurface water remained about the same during the past 6 weeks - and is not upwelling to the surface in much of the Central and Eastern area of the Equatorial Pacific to the west of South American.
The lack of intensification and arial coverage has delayed upwelling of colder water to the surface - and thus has delayed the formation of a La Nina event - or near La Nina event.

(where El Nino events typically form)
The graphic panels (below left) show much warmer than normal subsurface temperatures in (red) - warmer than normal (yellow and orange) and colder than normal (light blue to dark blue).
El Niño events develop in the Eastern Tropical South Pacific between the South American Coast and the Central South Pacific. This is called the Niño 3.4 Region.
The Tropical South Pacific surface water temperatures have not cooled further during the past 2 months - but as of 24 November the cooling has stopped due to a stopped and there was an actual rise in temperatures due to the lack of upwelling of colder subsurface water to the surface (see graphic on far left)
ENSO Neutral Conditions - neither El Niño nor La Niña Ocean temperature anomalies will continue into January 2025

Overview: ENSO - El Niño Southern Oscillation
The three phases of the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) typically cause changes in regional
weather patterns around the world - click here for more specific information.
El Niño phase (warm phase) occurs when the Tropical South Pacific Ocean surface and subsurface
water warm significantly above normal in the Eastern Pacific and along the South American Coast.
This phase typically causes increased precipitation in specific regions of the world, and in turn - drier
conditions in other regions.
La Niña phase (cold ocean water phase) is the complete opposite of the El Niño phase. The
typical conditions during an El Niño often flip-flop during the opposite phase of the El Niño - called the
Cold La Niña phase. During this phase the Tropical Pacific surface and subsurface water ocean water
is much colder than normal. This influences typical weather conditions around the world - opposite
of those conditions seen with an El Nino.
The third phase is called the Neutral phase and typically provides weather conditions that are
neither associated with the El Niño phase nor the La Niña Phase. Some regions of the world
also experience typical weather patterns for this phase of the ENSO.

Overview of GWO's Climate Research
Climate research by David Dilley of GWO, links the very powerful naturally occurring "Primary Forcing Mechanism (PFM) for climate" to the Earth's Natural Climate Pulse. It is the PFM that controls the rhythm of Earth's Natural Climate Pulse, and in turn controls naturally occurring climate oscillations.
It is the PFM cycles and the Earth's Natural Climate Pulse that induces cyclical changes in the earth's oceans and atmosphere, and in turn triggers the El Niño, controls seasonal hurricane tracks, historical regional floods-droughts, Global Warming and Cooling cycles, and many other climate weather cycles. GWO has found this Primary Forcing Mechanism (PFM) as the triggering mechanism that controls recurring cycles of the El Niño, regional hurricane landfalls and other weather/climate cycles.
GWO’s forecast models incorporate the PFM analog years to past climate/weather events in the model forecasts for regional hurricane landfall forecasts, global warming-cooling forecasts, La Niña and El Niño forecasts (see Figure 1 for examples of the PFM relationship to the El Niño). The models provide accurate extended weather/climate cycle outlooks many years into the future, and into the past. (see the Hurricane Services page and Prior GWO Forecasts and Tracks page for past performance of GWO's 2006 through 2014 hurricane and tropical storm forecasts).
The El Niño forms approximately every 3 to 4 years (sometimes 7 years apart) in the tropical South Pacific Ocean (Figure 1). An El Nino normally influences changes in weather patterns, with these changes often taking place in December near Christmas, but not always, such as in 2008-09 when weather patterns changed in August. An El Niño typically develops when a pool of very warm ocean water suddenly moves east from near Australia across the tropical South Pacific, causing disruptions in worldwide weather patterns.
Back in April of 2008, Meteorologist and climate researcher David Dilley of Global Weather Oscillations Inc. (GWO) predicted the strongest El Niño in over 10-years to occur in 2009. The El Niño formed in August and disrupted the 2009 hurricane season.
A moderate El Niño did occur in 2009 just as predicted and caused strong wind shear in the upper atmosphere. This essentially disrupted potential hurricanes form forming, and for those which did form, a rapid demise occurred. Due to the El Niño and climate cycles, no hurricanes made landfall along the coastal areas of the United States.
GWO's *Climate Pulse Prediction Model (patent pending) utilizes naturally occurring interactions between the earth, sun, moon, -oceans and atmosphere to determine the power structure of the "Primary Forcing Mechanism (PFM) for climate". GWO has found that it is the PFM controls the Earth's Natural Climate Pulse, and various cycles of the climate and weather, including Global Warming and Global Cooling cycles.
A portion of the PFM is a sub cycle of the scientifically proven Miklanovitch Cycles and Lunisolar Procession which regulate the natural rhythm of Earth, and sets up the Earth's Natural Climate Pulse. This acts like plunger pushing and pulling on the earth's atmosphere and oceans. This forcing action displaces the Bermuda High and South Pacific high pressure center from its normal location, and thus setting the stage for the strong El Niño which began in late June of 2009 and ended in April-May 2010.
During non El Niño years, prevailing easterly trade winds keep ocean waters relatively cool in the central South Pacific Region, and in turn causes a warm pool of water to gradually pile up in the
