yes. it’s loving us very much!

Here’s a good writeup about this (with a focus in Australia) from Kamilia Palu: au.news.yahoo.com/major-disast...

5. We suggested there might be a relation between the volcano and the evolution of ENSO. I think this one is still out there and I'm excited to see new, more comprehensive model simulations slowly coming out and pointing to similar ideas. 5/5

4. On the other hand, the larger ozone hole observed in spring 2023 did evolve as predicted, and the resulting positive Southern Annular Mode might well have been the reason the 2023-24 southern hemisphere summer was not as expected from the co-occurring El Nino. One prediction come true? 4/5

3. We might never know the actual, isolated climate impact because it gets drowned in all these other effects. Maybe this means it had no effect, but that would be wrong in the sense that a similar eruption in a more stable period (past or future) might still have measurable impact. 3/5

2. I would expect current sea surface temperature anomalies to dominate over any regional influence the volcano might have had. So I don't think the "weird" weather we are seeing in many places around the globe should be attributed to Hunga Tonga. 2/5

1. most important of all, and in accordance with all other research related to Hunga, we do not expect any measurable effect on global mean surface temperatures. Thus, none of what is and has been happening in terms of global mean temps in the recent past can be attributed to Hunga Tonga. 1/5
