2. Tropical Climate Variability MJO
850 -h. Pa Vector Wind Anomalies (m s-1) Note that shading denotes the zonal wind anomaly Blue shades: Easterly anomalies Red shades: Westerly anomalies increased. Monsoon flow increased over Africa and persisted over South Asia. the tropical Atlantic. Weak easterly anomalies spread across the westcentral Pacific. Westerly anomalies increased north of the equator over the eastern Pacific, with weak anomalies on the equator.
200 -h. Pa Velocity Potential Anomalies (5°S-5°N) Positive anomalies (brown shading) indicate unfavorable conditions for precipitation Negative anomalies (green shading) indicate favorable conditions for precipitation A slow eastward progression of negative anomalies was observed from January to present across the Indo-Pacific warm pool and central Pacific (red box). During February through April, anomalies propagated eastward with time associated with the MJO before weakening for much of May. Time The pattern became more organized during June with a more coherent wave-1 MJO-like structure with eastward propagation. The pattern became less coherent during July and August as other modes of subseasonal tropical variability, e. g. , equatorial Rossby and Kelvin wave activity, became the more dominant signals. More recently, the signal strengthened with some eastward propagation. Longitude

2. Tropical Climate Variability IOD, TAV, Hurricane
Evolution of Indian Ocean SST Indices - Negative DMI enhanced in August. Fig. I 1 a. Indian Ocean Dipole region indices, calculated as the area-averaged monthly mean sea surface temperature anomalies ( OC) for the SETIO [90ºE-110ºE, 10ºS-0] and WTIO [50ºE-70ºE, 10ºS-10ºN] regions, and Dipole Mode Index, defined as differences between WTIO and SETIO. Data are derived from the NCEP OI SST analysis, and anomalies are departures from the 1981 -2010 base period means.
Evolution of Tropical Atlantic SST Indices - Tropical North Atlantic (TNA) index was negative since Jan 2014. - Tropical South Atlantic (TSA) index continued to be near -normal. - Meridional Gradient Mode (TNA-TSA) remained negative. - Negative ATL 3 SSTA strengthened in Aug. 2014. Fig. A 1 a. Tropical Atlantic Variability region indices, calculated as the area-averaged monthly mean sea surface temperature anomalies (ºC) for the TNA [60ºW-30ºW, 5ºN-20ºN], TSA [30ºW-10ºE, 20ºS-0] and ATL 3 [20ºW-0, 2. 5ºS-2. 5ºN] regions, and Meridional Gradient Index, defined as differences between TNA and TSA. Data are derived from the NCEP OI SST analysis, and anomalies are departures from the 1981 -2010 base period means.

3. Extra-Tropical Climate Variability PDO, NAO, Ozone Hole, Monsoon
PDO index - PDO has been in positive phase since Mar 2014, and PDO index = +0. 3 in August 2014. - Pacific Decadal Oscillation is defined as the 1 st EOF of monthly ERSST v 3 b in the North Pacific for the period 19001993. PDO index is the standardized projection of the monthly SST anomalies onto the 1 st EOF pattern. - The PDO index differs slightly from that of JISAO, which uses a blend of UKMET and OIv 1 and OIv 2 SST.
NAO and SST Anomaly in North Atlantic - NAO was well below-normal , with NAO= -2. 3 in August 2014. - Large positive SST anomaly presented near the east coast of Canada and Norwegian Sea. - High-latitude North Atlantic SSTA are reversely related to NAO index (negative NAO coincides with to SST warming). Fig. NA 2. Monthly standardized NAO index (top) derived from monthly standardized 500 -mb height anomalies obtained from the NCEP CDAS in 20ºN-90ºN (http: //www. cpc. ncep. noaa. gov). Time-Latitude section of SST anomalies averaged between 80ºW and 20ºW (bottom). SST are derived from the NCEP OI SST analysis, and anomalies are departures from the 1981 -2010 base period means.
From Craig Long
The black line highlights the -78 C isotherm. Temps colder than -78 C are required to form polar stratospheric clouds upon which solar driven ozone depletion occurs.
Recent Heavy rains, Floods and mudslides in northern India in Kashmir region. (1 -7 Sep. 2014). Forecast anom Observed anom From Muthu Chelliah • India 2104 summer monsoon rainfall, so far this season (since 1 st June) is about 11% BELOW normal. This is much improved compared to about 45% below normal earlier in the season.
