Climate Outlook for September 2015 - February 2016
BUSAN, 25 August 2015 ? Synthesis of the latest model forecasts for September 2015 to February 2016 (SONDJF) at the APEC Climate Center (APCC), located at Busan, Korea, indicates persistent positive temperature anomaly across the tropical Pacific consistent with the strengthening El Nino. The forecasts for SON 2015 show the positive temperature anomalies to prevail over the globe. Above normal rainfalls are highly probable in the equatorial Pacific, while below normal precipitation is expected over the maritime continent and adjacent seas, Central and northern South Americas. The forecasts for DJF 2015/16 suggest persistence of the El Nino episode with above-normal rainfall in the equatorial Pacific and persisted dry conditions over the maritime continent Central and northern South Americas.
