NOAA CALCULATES A 50% CHANCE FOR EL NIÑO BY SEPT AND OCT

There is a chance for EL NIÑO to return by Sept and Oct the busiest time of hurricane season.  I have mentioned that in past blog last month and this confirms what I wrote in Feb.  This means average to below average hurricane activity in the Atlantic depending on the strength of EL NIÑO.  This also means more cold fronts coming across the Gulf with squall lines and severe weather for Florida next winter, as well as wet winter.  Will keep you posted as the year progresses and more information comes in.
