Boletín El Niño
Comments:
Altimetry map and indicator seem to indicate that the situation is evolving towards an El Niño, even if it's out of season (but experts think that we still haven't seen the whole range of possible El Niño/La Niña in the twenty years or so since global monitoring is enabled).
Temperature anomalies with respect to depth at the equator (equatorial section based on TAO array data) show an anomaly about +1°C in surface. This suggest that the warm pool is beginning to empty towards East and Equatorial Peru coasts.

Latest plots
Latest monthly mean of Sea Level Anomalies over the Tropical Pacific (MSLA are computed from Ssalto/Duacs, annual and seasonnal cycles removed here, see product sheet). A map of the latest Sea Surface Temeprature is also available. See also previous maps for MSLA and for Sea Surface Temperature (SST). Credits CLS/CNES.
Standardized Sea Level Anomalies over the Nino3.4 region (MSLA are computed from Ssalto/Duacs, see product sheet). See also non-standardized Sea Level Anomalies. A Standardized Sea Surface Temperature is also available here.
