The developing El Nino is "swinging for the fences" and will almost certainly be in the "strong" category this winter, with its effects having an enhanced chance of being significant.
An El Nino is considered "strong" when the sea surface temperature difference from normal in the central equatorial Pacific is more than 1.5°C for at least three months in a row.
The observations suggest this is already happening.
The area used to define El Nino (and La Nina) events is the Nino 3.4 zone in the central tropical Pacific (see map below).
The observed sea surface temperature in the Nino 3.4 area (see below) has been at or above 1.5C above normal for three months---and it is not done strengthening.
