SUMMARY: The Climate Prediction Center now gives a 51% chance of an ENSO Neutral winter for 2025–2026, marking the first time this phase leads the forecast with over 50% confidence. La Niña odds are at 37%, and El Niño at just 12%, making El Niño winters effectively ruled out. ENSO Neutral means Pacific Ocean temperatures won’t drive winter patterns, making other, less predictable systems more influential. While La Niña could still occur, bringing drier, warmer weather to the South and wetter conditions to the Pacific Northwest, ENSO forecasts are only becoming reliable now, post-spring, as prediction accuracy improves through summer.

SUMMARY: President Trump criticized ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel after CBS announced the cancellation of “The Late Show with Stephen Colbert” for financial reasons, suggesting Kimmel is “next” and praising Fox’s Greg Gutfeld instead. CBS called the decision purely financial, but critics suspect political motives due to Paramount’s recent $16 million settlement with Trump over a lawsuit related to a “60 Minutes” interview and resignations of top CBS executives amid the controversy. Paramount’s planned Skydance merger also hinges on FCC approval. Fellow hosts, including Kimmel and Jimmy Fallon, expressed support for Colbert. The Writers Guild is urging an investigation into alleged political influence. The show ends in May 2026.
