El Nino peaks in Dec.?

This is a graph of various forecasts for El Nino 3.4 (3.4 refers to a geographic region along the Equatorial Pacific).  

As we thought, the consensus of the models has the El Nino peaking in about early December and then trending downward.  

So, this will not be a blow-out El Nino like 1982-83 or 1997-98.  

We are going to get some cold and snow going here in the Great Lakes.  

November is now 5.2 deg. warmer than average and Lake Michigan is still relatively warm.  

But the cold air is lurking in the far north.

Bettles, AK had a HIGH temperature of -38F yesterday.  

That was a staggering 43 degrees colder than their average high temperature.
