Is The Atlantic Multi-decadal Oscillation Changing?

The November 2018 Atlantic multi-decadal oscillation was one of the coolest monthly observations during the last 20 years which otherwise has featured mostly very warm values. Is the warm cycle of the AMO about to change phase? If so prevailing climate changes (drier summers over crop areas) across North America and Europe are likely. Lowering number of hurricanes, given a cooler North Atlantic would also occur.

In Late 2018 U.S. Soil Moisture is Much Wetter/European Drought Continues/South Africa Drought Strengthens

The global soil moisture trend during the past 3 months brought historic wet changes to Texas, the Midwest U.S. and parts of the East U.S. In Europe drought intensified and expanded eastward while Australian drought weakened slightly. In South Africa the latest drought condition strengthened while northern Argentina into central Brazil turned wetter.

Explaining Unexpected Heavy Rains Across Northeast Brazil

Coupling between the warming eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean and the atmosphere to produce an El Nino climate is not occurring. For this reason other regional climate generators gain influence. One recent example is emergence of a very un-El Nino-like wet regime evolving in northeast Brazil.

MJO-Inspired Major U.S. Storm Ahead

A major U.S. storm is ahead featuring a Nebraska blizzard, Mid-South U.S. tornado outbreak and 10 in. of rain across northern Florida is ahead inspired by interaction of mid-latitude storms entraining deep subtropical moisture provided by the tropical East Pacific Madden Julian oscillation. The event is a possible sign of El Nino climate onset. El Nino will be with us well into 2019.

Climate Impact Company Chart of the Day

  • Wet Soils, Snowmelt and Heavy Rain = NC/VA Flooding Late Week

    12/11/2018, 9:36 am EST
    North Carolina/Virginia soil moisture is historically wet after a rainy warm season in 2018. The weekend heavy snowfall event contained up to 3 in. of water in some areas. A warmer pattern accompanied with heavy rain will cause a flash flood risk for late this week.

    • Atlantic Multi-decadal oscillation & Spring/Summer U.S. Rainfall

      12/09/2018, 10:46 am EST
      In their infancy climate forecast models were heavily influenced by whether El Nino or La Nina were present. However, with the exception of the 2015-16 El Nino the past 20 years have produced weaker and less predictable El Nino episodes giving increased visibility (and research) to influences of other lead modes of climate variability on climate forecasts. A leading influence on U.S. precipitation is the Atlantic multidecadal oscillation bursting into its warm cycle the past 20 years. The +AMO has certainly contributed to spring/summer precipitation in the U.S. growing areas.
