I’m ready. I’ve just “battened down” the hatches.
Perpetual “State of Fear”
Brush it off...just like new ice age in the (70’s), global warming (90’s), Climate change (2000’s).
“This will be a more active than usual hurricane season”....NOT! They’ve predicted this for the last three years....and they were not just wrong, they were way off.
This just so happens to have been the slowest tornado season this year.
Sweeeeeet!
Sorry for the coastal folks but in AZ we love us some El Nino, we get mild wet summers from it.
Does this give weather geeks a woody?
COOL I am for it here in Cali Blam LOL!
No such thing as El Nino - it’s global warming/climate change. /sarc
My fault.
Well, global temps could rise again, providing “I told you so” cover for the CAGW alarmist Watermelons.
My main concern is how this is going to affect the whale oil futures I just bought last week...
Just this morning, in another post on FR, Jeffrey Folkes from American Thinker said there's not going to be a summer and things will be miserably cold...
Weather patterns do not INCREASE heat around the globe. It shifts it. If Seattle is hot, Munich will be cold, or whatever.
Heat - ENERGY - comes from the sun.
Finally, the global warming people are going to get some warm temperatures like they’re always hoping for. I guess they’re happy about this news.
Lots of babble, but El Nino years are rarely hot. They are known for increased precipitation, which is always good news for skiers, and bad news for mountain climbers.
California needs a good el nino to fill some reservoirs.

After this past frigid "Polar Vortex," I'll take it.
Last year in Central NH it rained through July, similar to the 1311 famine, the year before similar.
This year seems to be normal, the snow has melted the weather is warming, the ticks are out, my plants are reaching for the sun,
Hansen himself claimed the El Nino in 2012 would be the greatest in history. It did not even beat the El Nino of 2009/2010.
Re: “But peering below the ocean’s surface, water temperatures are already off-the-charts-hot.”
I wish the author had provided data on that claim.
The Climate Nazis now claim that the reason Earth has experienced a 15 year “pause” in warming is because all that heat is “hiding” in the deep ocean.
I’d like to know if his claim about a “hot” Pacific Ocean is just more propaganda, or if it’s based on actual measurements.
The sport fishing fleet in San Diego is looking forward to it. El Nin~o brings tuna. Lots of Albacore on the way.
