  4. Constructed Analogue on SST and OCN

  5. August 2013: 393.11 ppm August 2012: 389.82 ppm The new 2012 data from obs are very close to the early projections with a global annual mean of 393.51 ppmv, it reflects about a 2.3 ppmv yearly increase. 2014 projected values around 398.11.. (From e-mail Yu-Tai, for the GFS implementation.)

  6. Global SST Anomaly (0C) and Anomaly Tendency • Small negative SSTA presented in the eastern tropical and NW Pacific. • Negative phase of PDO associated SSTA pattern continued in N. Pacific. • Positive SSTA was observed in the N. Atlantic Ocean. • Tendency was small in the equatorial central and eastern Pacific. • Cooling tendency presented in the NW Pacific. • SSTA associated with negative phase of PDO strengthened. • A very strong horse-shoe pattern was observed in the N. Atlantic, may caused by negative phase of NAO. Fig. G1. Sea surface temperature anomalies (top) and anomaly tendency (bottom). Data are derived from the NCEP OI SST analysis, and anomalies are departures from the 1981-2010 base period means.

  7. By Nov. 6, 2013: 12 total storms, 2 hurricanes; 0 major hurricanes Since 1960, there were four years without major hurricanes in the Atlantic Ocean: 1994, 1986, 1972 and 1968.

  8. NMME forecasts ahead of schedule!!!!!!, compare to govt shutdown
