An El Nino means rain for California. A Super El Nino means rain and more than likely some flash flooding and mud slides for them. Joe is predicting a Super El Nino that that is going to try and peak in the fall this year which is unusual. It also means warmer than normal temps for us in most of the US. This will go on for a couple years.
Then will come the crash and when it comes we are going to have cooler summers and colder than normal winters again.
Meanwhile in the Atlantic the AMO (Atlantic Mutidecadal Ocillation is shifting to it's cold or negative phase. What this means is that the Gulf stream will be carrying colder than normal water and a massive area of cold water will pile up in the northern Atlantic. This doesn't happen over night. It happens over a period of a decade or more. But the shift is definitely on. In practical terms this means fewer Atlantic Hurricanes, growing ice in the Arctic circle with less summer melt, and species of marine life normally found in colder waters being found further north. It will also mean the end of the global warming scam more than likely.

The Anchovies know. The term El Nino to describe warmer than normal currents off their shores was given by Peruvian anchovy fishermen. Here is an interesting article on that and how those little fish are still a better predictor of an El Nino than anything man has come up with yet. Anchovies are commercially a far more important fish than most people realize. The amount canned for consumption is a speck compared to the amounts converted to fish meal. So countries do their best to keep track of the huge biomass that millions upon millions of these little fish constitute.
ENSO and the anchovy
So while I greatly respect Joe Bastardi and his forecasting ability I have to say that until the Anchovy disappear there is no El Nino.
