Download The Climate Impact Company Season 1-3 Ahead Climate Forecast
Pictured: The Climate Impact Company summertime 2017-18 temperature and precipitation anomaly forecast for South America.
The risk of La Nina developing for summer 2017-18 is increasing. The attendant climate pattern is forecast to generate mid-to-late summer based on a constructed analog. However, the onset of north/central South America rains, particularly in Brazil may emerge more quickly. The summer 2017-18 outlook is potentially very wet across central and northeast Brazil. The dryness in Brazil should erode this summer season. Meanwhile a potentially strong dry pattern emerges during summer for north/northeast Argentina to far southeast Brazil.
