The BOM’s seasonal model, called ACCESS-S, is tipping an all-time record later in the year with a peak warming in excess of 3C above normal, comfortably above the previous post-1900 high of 2.65C from November 1902.
Well that’s quite a change from 3 days ago:

They have been saying no El Nino declared yet for months. Meanwhile the rest of the scientific community has clearly been becoming very concerned at the early indications in the Pacific. Im not sure if they were just waiting for the local media to notice. For example the recent run of record breaking high winter temperatures. Then it’s oh well might as well make it official then?
