NOAA’s latest El Niño update shows that El Niño is still present in the eastern Pacific Ocean, although its strength has waned somewhat. The latest set of prediction graphs from IRI show that it is expected to continue for most of the next year, with only a few models suggesting a swing to La Niña.
