Producing Centres forecasts, there is a 60% chance of ENSO-neutral conditions during March\u2013May 2026, compared with a 30% probability of La Ni\u00f1a continuing and a 10% chance of El Ni\u00f1o developing.<\/p>\n<p>ENSO-neutral conditions are the most likely outcome during April\u2013June (around 70% chance) and May\u2013July (around 60% chance). The chance of El Ni\u00f1o increases steadily from April\u2013June (around 30%) to May\u2013July (around 40%). The re-development of La Ni\u00f1a remains unlikely in the extended outlook. However, uncertainty is high at longer lead times, and forecasts made at this time of year tend to be less reliable.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Accordingly, these probabilities should be interpreted as guidance and treated with caution, especially in light of the lower predictability characteristic of the boreal spring transition. National Meteorological and Hydrological Services (NMHSs) will closely monitor changes in the state of ENSO over the coming months and provide updated outlooks as needed.<br \/><a target=\"_blank\" class=\"simple-button-plugin primary\" href=\"https:\/\/wmo.int\/files\/factsheet-el-ninola-nina-update-february-2026\" type=\"Primary\">Factsheet: El Ni\u00f1o\/La Ni\u00f1a Update (February 2026)<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"flex flex-col gap-4 md:gap-5 lg:gap-6\">\n<h2 class=\"text-xl md:text-2xl lg:text-3xl\">Press Release<\/h2>\n<div class=\"flex gap-4 flex-wrap\">\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" class=\"server-theme-button flex flex-row items-center justify-center gap-2 w-fit px-4 py-2 md:py-3 md:px-5 border-2 border-wmo-dark-blue rounded-lg text-sm md:text-base font-semibold  text-wmo-blue-gray-900 hover:text-white focus-visible:text-white bg-white hover:bg-wmo-dark-blue focus-visible:bg-wmo-dark-blue\" href=\"https:\/\/wmo.int\/ar\/news\/media-centre\/twqat-ban-tswd-zrwf-mhaydt-lzahrt-alnynyw-altdhbdhb-aljnwby-m-tlashy-zahrt-alnynya-ghyr-alahtmalat\"><\/p>\n<div>\u0639\u0631\u0628\u064a<\/div>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" class=\"server-theme-button flex flex-row items-center justify-center gap-2 w-fit px-4 py-2 md:py-3 md:px-5 border-2 border-wmo-dark-blue rounded-lg text-sm md:text-base font-semibold  text-wmo-blue-gray-900 hover:text-white focus-visible:text-white bg-white hover:bg-wmo-dark-blue focus-visible:bg-wmo-dark-blue\" href=\"https:\/\/wmo.int\/zh-hans\/news\/media-centre\/suizhelaninaxiaotuiyujichuxianensozhongxingtiaojiandaneerninuogailushangsheng\"><\/p>\n<div>\u4e2d\u6587<\/div>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" class=\"server-theme-button flex flex-row items-center justify-center gap-2 w-fit px-4 py-2 md:py-3 md:px-5 border-2 border-wmo-dark-blue rounded-lg text-sm md:text-base font-semibold  text-wmo-blue-gray-900 hover:text-white focus-visible:text-white bg-white hover:bg-wmo-dark-blue focus-visible:bg-wmo-dark-blue\" href=\"https:\/\/wmo.int\/news\/media-centre\/enso-neutral-conditions-expected-la-nina-fades-el-nino-chances-rise\"><\/p>\n<div>English<\/div>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" class=\"server-theme-button flex flex-row items-center justify-center gap-2 w-fit px-4 py-2 md:py-3 md:px-5 border-2 border-wmo-dark-blue rounded-lg text-sm md:text-base font-semibold  text-wmo-blue-gray-900 hover:text-white focus-visible:text-white bg-white hover:bg-wmo-dark-blue focus-visible:bg-wmo-dark-blue\" href=\"https:\/\/wmo.int\/fr\/news\/media-centre\/des-conditions-enso-neutres-sont-attendues-alors-que-la-nina-sestompe-mais-la-probabilite-dun\"><\/p>\n<div>Fran\u00e7ais<\/div>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" class=\"server-theme-button flex flex-row items-center justify-center gap-2 w-fit px-4 py-2 md:py-3 md:px-5 border-2 border-wmo-dark-blue rounded-lg text-sm md:text-base font-semibold  text-wmo-blue-gray-900 hover:text-white focus-visible:text-white bg-white hover:bg-wmo-dark-blue focus-visible:bg-wmo-dark-blue\" href=\"https:\/\/wmo.int\/ru\/news\/media-centre\/po-mere-togo-kak-la-ninya-oslabevaet-ozhidayutsya-neytralnye-usloviya-enyuk-no-veroyatnost\"><\/p>\n<div>\u0420\u0443\u0441\u0441\u043a\u0438\u0439<\/div>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" class=\"server-theme-button flex flex-row items-center justify-center gap-2 w-fit px-4 py-2 md:py-3 md:px-5 border-2 border-wmo-dark-blue rounded-lg text-sm md:text-base font-semibold  text-wmo-blue-gray-900 hover:text-white focus-visible:text-white bg-white hover:bg-wmo-dark-blue focus-visible:bg-wmo-dark-blue\" href=\"https:\/\/wmo.int\/es\/news\/media-centre\/el-episodio-de-la-nina-se-desvanece-se-preven-condiciones-neutras-respecto-al-fenomeno-enos-y\"><\/p>\n<div>Espa\u00f1ol<\/div>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"border-t border-wmo-blue-gray-400\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"w-full\">\n<div class=\"bg-wmo-yellow\">\n<div class=\"py-6 md:py-8 lg:py-10\">\n<div class=\"flex flex-col gap-6 md:gap-8 lg:gap-10\">\n<div class=\"container-wide w-full\">\n<div class=\"max-w-[1040px] w-full mx-auto\">\n<div class=\"flex flex-col lg:grid lg:grid-cols-[minmax(400px,auto)_1fr] gap-8 md:gap-5  mx-auto items-center lg:items-start\">\n<div class=\"lg:max-w-[400px] text-center lg:text-left\">\n<h2 class=\"text-xl md:text-2xl lg:text-3xl\">About the El Ni\u00f1o\/La Ni\u00f1a Updates series<\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"flex flex-col gap-8 md:gap-5 items-center lg:items-start\">\n<div class=\"prose text-wmo-blue-gray-900 max-w-5xl\">\n<div class=\"clearfix text-formatted field field--name-description field--type-text-long field--label-hidden field__item\">\n<p>The El Ni\u00f1o\/La Ni\u00f1a Update\u00a0provides analysis of the current conditions and evolution of the status of the El Ni\u00f1o-Southern Oscillation phenomenon.\u00a0These include detailed information on sea surface and subsurface temperature anomalies, atmospheric circulation, cloudiness and rainfall patterns.
