Dacula and Gwinnett County Weather - Oceanic Niño Index (ONI)

DESCRIPTION: Warm (red) and cold (blue) episodes based on a threshold of +/- 0.5^oC for the Oceanic Niño Index (ONI) [3 month running mean of ERSST.v3b SST anomalies in the Niño 3.4 region (5^oN-5^oS, 120^o-170^oW)], based on the 1971-2000 base period. For historical purposes cold and warm episodes (blue and red colored numbers) are defined when the threshold is met for a minimum of 5 consecutive over-lapping seasons.
