Which means "maybe or maybe not, we don't know"

Predicting a "50% chance" isn't a prediction of ANYTHING. Way to stick your neck out there with the risky predictions, Weather Bureau.

Gee. I guess the Japanese weather bureau doesn't have access to international news and is otherwise unaware of what kind of winter weather NA has had. El Nino was declared months ago.

Actually el nino didn't emerge last summer.

Pacific Sea warming occured but conditions were never strong enough (borderline) to trigger an el nino.

The current status - as has been in the main - is neutral.

At this time of the year - northern hemisphere spring - there are many climate variables and predicting long term over 3 months is as good as guessing.
