• As per IRI/CPC outlook during mid-August 2016 the tropical Pacific SSTanomaly was close to -0.5C, approaching the weak La Niña threshold.Most ENSO prediction models indicate SSTs most likely near the borderlineof cool-neutral and weak La Niña (average Nino-3.4 index less than orequal to -0.5 deg. C) from the present through fall and into winter, withabout 55-60% chance.
• The latest NOAA/CPC CFSv2 ensemble model products dated 26 August2016 indicate that the monthly cumulative rainfall during September islikely to be moderately on the negative side of the normal over most partsof the country except east and northeast India where it is expected to beon the positive side.
