Individual years can be. 1998 is a good example - a strong el nino that year made it a record breaker
That was a good one here in So Cal. Had some incredible fishing right off the coast. My main complaint, besides ignoring a recent historical Ozone transient, is that they now want 100 years (century) to be proven right. We will all be dead by then anyway. Looks like an argument that will never be proven one way or the other by us.
